Abstract

In this paper we present an algorithm to generate new views of a human face, starting with at least two other views of the face. In a typical face recognition system, the task of comparison becomes easier if the faces have similar orientation with respect to the camera. The affine coordinate based reprojection algorithm presented in the paper enables us to do that. Dense point matches between the two input faces of the same individual are computed using an affine coordinate based reprojection framework. This is followed by the reprojection of one of these to faces to the target face once the user has matched four feature points across two input face images and the target face image.
