Abstract
Various embodiments of methods and apparatus for face fitting are disclosed. In one embodiment, sets of two-dimensional local feature points on a face in each image of a set of images are identified. The set of images includes a sequence of frames a video stream. A three-dimensional face model for the face in the each image is generated as a combination of a set of predefined three-dimensional face models. In some embodiments, the generating includes reducing an error between a projection of vertices of the set of predefined three-dimensional face models and the two-dimensional local feature points of the each image, and constraining facial expression of the three-dimensional face model to change smoothly from image to image in the sequence of video frames.
