Motivation & Project Description This project concerns mainly faces and deformable objects. Here is a brief list of topics related to the project: Face and gesture tracking and animation
Biometric identification
Physically based modeling
Expected Outcome: The project is supposed to result in development of novel algorithms for face detection and pose estimation, face tracking and animation and face modelling. The face model for speech synthesis and animation should be developed. Equally project should provide advances in biometrics, especially developing new methods for iris recognition. Developing algorithms for upper body tracking and gesture recognition is yet another goal of the project. The project mainly should result in scientific publications and patents.
