A Method to Visualize Information of Words Expressing Facial Features
Futoshi Sugimoto · 2010
Our aim is to synthesize faces based on freely-elicited expressions by expanding the range of words describing the shape of facial elements to include abstract or metaphorical expressions. We realize this by defining the synthesizing process of a human face as a mapping from a word space to a physical model space. The use of whole words existing in the word space has made it possible to synthesize a human face based on freely-elicited expressions.
