  • Abstract
    In this paper we propose a fast and simple interactive method to create a customized 3D talking head by adapting a generic model to a given picture. Our approach uses an interpolation technique, based on radial basis functions with compact support, to get the 3D coordinates of the head mesh. We obtain a complete texture-mapped model after selecting only 18 feature points
