Face Morphing

Computing the "Mid-way Face"

The main task is to compute the mid-way face of your images A and B. It is done by computing the average shape and warp both face into the shape. and then we take the average of the colors to get the midway face. for defining the correspondences, I used the anaotation seqence I find online, as well as some additional points and edge points.

<Obama>

<George>

The Morph Sequence

In this section, we can use the parts defined above and make a morph sequence from image A to B.

The "Mean face" of a population

In this section, consist of 3 step, 1: Compute the average face shape of the whole population or some subset of the population, 2: Morph each of the faces in the dataset into the average shape and 3 Compute the average face of the population and display it. here is the result I achieved using the first 15 image of the data set privided online

and here is a face wrap into the avreage shape

and here is my Caricatures

Bells and Whistles

For Bells and Whistles, I changed the age of my face to a middle age asian men by warping my face into their Correspondences points
