This paper introduces a new control signal for facial motion generation: timeline control. Compared to audio and text signals, timelines provide more fine-grained control, such as generating specific facial motions with precise timing.…
We present a technique for the animation of a 3D kinematic tongue model, one component of the talking head of an acoustic-visual (AV) speech synthesizer. The skeletal animation approach is adapted to make use of a deformable rig controlled…
This paper addresses the challenging scenario for the distant-talking control of a music playback device, a common portable speaker with four small loudspeakers in close proximity to one microphone. The user controls the device through…
A sound source was proposed for acoustic measurements of physical models of the human vocal tract. The physical models are produced by Fast Prototyping, based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging during prolonged vowel production. The sound…
Eye tracking is a key technology for human-computer interaction, particularly crucial in augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) systems. We propose a novel eye-tracking approach based on incorporating passive eye-tracking modules…
Lip-syncing videos with given audio is the foundation for various applications including the creation of virtual presenters or performers. While recent studies explore high-fidelity lip-sync with different techniques, their task-orientated…
We propose a method to build in real-time animated 3D head models using a consumer-grade RGB-D camera. Our proposed method is the first one to provide simultaneously comprehensive facial motion tracking and a detailed 3D model of the user's…
The task of lip synchronization (lip-sync) seeks to match the lips of human faces with different audio. It has various applications in the film industry as well as for creating virtual avatars and for video conferencing. This is a…
The central role of the face in social interaction and non-verbal communication suggests we explore facial action as a means of musical expression. This paper presents the design, implementation, and preliminary studies of a novel system…
In this paper, we present a method for reprogramming pre-trained audio-driven talking face synthesis models to operate in a text-driven manner. Consequently, we can easily generate face videos that articulate the provided textual sentences,…
In this paper, we propose a multi-speaker face-to-speech waveform generation model that also works for unseen speaker conditions. Using a generative adversarial network (GAN) with linguistic and speaker characteristic features as auxiliary…
Kinship face synthesis is an interesting topic raised to answer questions like "what will your future children look like?". Published approaches to this topic are limited. Most of the existing methods train models for one-versus-one kin…
Talking face generation with great practical significance has attracted more attention in recent audio-visual studies. How to achieve accurate lip synchronization is a long-standing challenge to be further investigated. Motivated by xxx, in…
The goal of this work is to simultaneously generate natural talking faces and speech outputs from text. We achieve this by integrating Talking Face Generation (TFG) and Text-to-Speech (TTS) systems into a unified framework. We address the…
Emotional and controllable speech synthesis is a topic that has received much attention. However, most studies focused on improving the expressiveness and controllability in the context of linguistic content, even though natural verbal…
Speaker diarization is one of the critical components of computational media intelligence as it enables a character-level analysis of story portrayals and media content understanding. Automated audio-based speaker diarization of…
Modern avatar generators allow anyone to synthesize photorealistic real-time talking avatars, ushering in a new era of avatar-based human communication, such as with immersive AR/VR interactions or videoconferencing with limited bandwidths.…
One usage of medical ultrasound imaging is to visualize and characterize human tongue shape and motion during a real-time speech to study healthy or impaired speech production. Due to the low-contrast characteristic and noisy nature of…
In this paper, we study the associations between human faces and voices. Audiovisual integration, specifically the integration of facial and vocal information is a well-researched area in neuroscience. It is shown that the overlapping…
Current speech production systems predominantly rely on large transformer models that operate as black boxes, providing little interpretability or grounding in the physical mechanisms of human speech. We address this limitation by proposing…
