Expression Transfer between Photographs through Multilinear AAM´s

Expression transfer is a method for mapping a photographed expression performed by a given subject onto the photograph of another person´s face. Building on well succeeded previous works by the vision researchers (facial expression decomposition, active appearance models and multilinear analysis, we propose a novel approach for expression transfer based on color images. We attack this problem with methods developed by the computer vision community for facial expression analysis and recognition. Combining active appearance models and multilinear analysis, it´s possible to suitably represent and analyze expressive facial images, while separating both style (subject´s identity) and content (expressive flavor) from the captured performance
