Individual Prototyping Based Facial Aging Image Synthesis
We propose a new image based individual prototyping method for facial aging image synthesis.Based on the human facial aging image database of the yellow race
we present an individual prototyping match algorithm based on the local standard deviation of curvatures of facial contour.By calculating the local standard deviation of those curvatures
we match the input facial image with several corresponding ones from the face database and synthesize the prototypes with texture enhancement.By the shape and color transformation model we generate the aged facial images.Our method can realize several important aged features such as wrinkles
pouches
darken skin
and somewhat white hair and eyebrows.Experiments show that our method can be easily manipulated and synthesize the anile facial images at different ages for various kinds of people realistically.
