by

Sergej Piekh (UHANN)



A method for detection of face and facial features in images is presented, that avoids the application of luminance templates and the problems associated with the generation and properly rotation and scaling of templates. Furthermore, an animation of a human face using Waters muscle model is presented. Thereby an algorithm for adaptation of a muscle model from a source face model to a target face model is used.
