Modeling non-Lambertian effects such as facial specularity leads to a more realistic 3D Morphable Face Model. Existing works build parametric models for diffuse and specular albedo using Light Stage data. However, only diffuse and specular…

Posing 3D characters is a fundamental task in computer graphics. However, existing paradigms, ranging from traditional auto-rigging to recent pose-conditioned generative models, frequently struggle with inaccurate skinning weights, fixed…

Lip motion reflects behavior characteristics of speakers, and thus can be used as a new kind of biometrics in speaker recognition. In the literature, lots of works used two-dimensional (2D) lip images to recognize speaker in a textdependent…

For humans, visual understanding is inherently generative: given a 3D shape, we can postulate how it would look in the world; given a 2D image, we can infer the 3D structure that likely gave rise to it. We can thus translate between the 2D…

We present User-predictable Face Editing (UP-FacE) -- a novel method for predictable face shape editing. In stark contrast to existing methods for face editing using trial and error, edits with UP-FacE are predictable by the human user.…
