Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Head and facial mimic animations play important roles in various fields such as human-machine interactions, internet communications, multimedia applications, and facial mimic analysis. Numerous studies have been trying to simulate these animations. However, they hardly achieved all requirements of full rigid head and non-rigid facial mimic animations in a subject-specific manner with real-time framerates. Consequently, this present study aimed to develop a real-time computer vision system for tracking simultaneously rigid head and non-rigid facial mimic movements.
