Automatic Image-based 3D Head Modeling: Only from Two Images

Reader can find the 3D head model reconstruction techniques overview including the new approach for the 3D head model creation with a parameterized model based on hierarchical tree of facial features derived from previous parameterized model solutions. Complete workflow describing the reconstruction process is explained. Author wrote about the known facial feature detection techniques and uses those techniques in combination to create a powerful tool for detecting facial features from images. Special real-time rendering techniques approximating subsurface scattering effect are discussed in this book. Author describes whole 3D head reconstruction process and created software structure. At the end of book the quality and speed measurement is explained.
