Highlights: Hello and welcome. In this post, we shall describe a modeling technique for 3D textured faces. By converting a set of 3D face models’ shapes and textures into a vector space representation, we will be able to create a morphable face model. By creating linear combinations of face models, new faces and facial expressions can be generated. So, let us begin this journey! 3D Database of Faces (Cyberware TM) In order to create 3D…

Highlights: Hello and welcome to our new post. Here we are going to talk about Principal Component Analysis (PCA). In the previous post, we learned that we need to apply this method to construct a parametric face model. In order to better understand the whole process let’s remind ourselves what is PCA and how it works. The theoretical explanation of the PCA in this post is based on the YouTube video “3D Scanning & Motion…

Highlights: Hello and welcome. In the last few years, Deep fake videos become very popular on social media. In this post, we will learn the basic theory behind deep fakes, and more specifically, how we can build a 3D face model and capture a motion in the human face. In this post, we are going to review the YouTube video “3D Scanning & Motion Capture: 8. Parametric Face Models”[1]. So let’s begin! Let’s have a…
