Highly automated method for facial expression synthesis

Ersotelos, Nikolaos January 2010 (has links)
The synthesis of realistic facial expressions has been an unexplored area for computer graphics scientists. Over the last three decades, several different construction methods have been formulated in order to obtain natural graphic results. Despite these advancements, though, current techniques still require costly resources, heavy user intervention and specific training and outcomes are still not completely realistic. This thesis, therefore, aims to achieve an automated synthesis that will produce realistic facial expressions at a low cost. This thesis, proposes a highly automated approach for achieving a realistic facial expression synthesis, which allows for enhanced performance in speed (3 minutes processing time maximum) and quality with a minimum of user intervention. It will also demonstrate a highly technical and automated method of facial feature detection, by allowing users to obtain their desired facial expression synthesis with minimal physical input. Moreover, it will describe a novel approach to the normalization of the illumination settings values between source and target images, thereby allowing the algorithm to work accurately, even in different lighting conditions. Finally, we will present the results obtained from the proposed techniques, together with our conclusions, at the end of the paper.

Τρισδιάστατη αναπαράσταση χώρου από βιντεοσκοπήσεις κινούμενου αυτοκινήτου / 3d site reconstruction from moving car video capture

Μανιανής, Διονύσιος 04 October 2011 (has links)
Σκοπός της διπλωματικής εργασίας είναι να παρουσιαστούν μερικές από τις πιο αξιοσημείωτες τεχνικές για τρισδιάστατη αναπαράσταση χώρου από βιντεοσκοπήσεις κινούμενου αυτοκινήτου. Αρχικά, το πρώτο κομμάτι είναι προσανατολισμένο στην περιγραφή των εφαρμογών που ακολουθεί η τρισδιάστατη αναπαράσταση χώρου από βιντεοσκοπήσεις και επίσης γίνεται εισαγωγή στις αρχικές έννοιες και στα βασικά μαθηματικά που χρησιμοποιούνται. Έπειτα περιγράφεται μια μέθοδος τρισδιάστατης αναπαράστασης από βιντεοσκόπηση με την χρήση απλών καμερών. Ο αλγόριθμος που περιγράφεται εδώ χρησιμοποιεί τις εικόνες από την απλή κάμερα και απαιτεί επιπλέον ότι κάθε δείκτης στο αντικείμενο συνδέεται με τουλάχιστον έναν άλλο δείκτη από σωστή απόσταση. Στο τρίτο κομμάτι της εργασίας περιγράφεται μια ακόμη μέθοδος η οποία στηρίζεται σε γραμμικά κινούμενα αντικείμενα. / The goal of this bachelor thesis is to present some of the most remarkable techniques of the three-dimensional reconstruction site from video animation moving car. At first, the first piece is oriented at the description of the application used by the three-dimensional reconstruction site of video and it is also an introduction to the initial concept and to the basic mathematics that are used. After that, a method of 3D video reconstruction using simple cameras is being described. The algorithm being described here, uses the images from the simple camera and requires that in addition that every object indication links with at least one other indicator from a known distance. At the third part one more method is described that is founded in linear moving objects.
