3D face reconstruction based on a single image with reference model

LI Xiao-l · Journal of Beijing Jiaotong University · 2014

There are broad application prospects for 3D face reconstruction using a single image as it is convenient to capture. This paper employs a 3D reference model fused with a single image for 3D face reconstruction.; he key idea is to connect the image lighting information with depth information by spherical harmonic function.; hus the lighting coefficients can be approximated through the depth information of reference model. Then the depth information of input image is captured based on the approximated lighting coefficients. The proposed method can not only get rid of the flaw of shape from shading method,but also do not need numbers of facial models which are used in statistic models. Therefore,the proposed strategy is convenient and effective for applications when the results are based on the images in Bosphorus database,JAFFE database as well as the data captured in real world.
