In this paper, XfaceEd, our open source, platform independent tool for authoring 3D embodied conversational agents (ECAs) is presented. Following MPEG-4 Facial Animation (FA) stan...
We present a novel approach to speech-driven facial animation using a non-parametric switching state space model based on Gaussian processes. The model is an extension of the shar...
We present our system for the capturing and analysis of 3D facial motion. A high speed camera is used as capture unit in combination with two surface mirrors. The mirrors provide ...
MPEG-4 is scheduled to become an International Standard in March 1999. This paper demonstrates an experiment for a virtual cloning method and animation system, which is compatible...
Animating 3D faces to achieve compelling realism is a challenging task in the entertainment industry. Previously proposed face transfer approaches generally require a high-quality...
