Representation Analysis and Synthesis of Lip Images Using Dimensionality Reduction

摘要

Understanding facial expressions in image sequences is an easy task for humans. Some of us are capable of lipreading by interpreting the motion of the mouth. Automatic lipreading by a computer is a challenging task, with so far limited success. The inverse problem of synthesizing real looking lip movements is also highly non-trivial. Today, the technology to automatically generate an image series that imitates natural postures is far from perfect.
