Caricature Generator: The Dynamic Exaggeration of Faces by Computer
نویسنده
چکیده
The author has researched and developed a theory of computation for caricature and has implemented this theory as an interactive computer graphics program. The Caricature Generator program is used to create caricatures by amplifying the differences between the face to be caricatured and a comparison face. This continuous, parallel amplification of facial features on the computer screen simulates the visualization process in the imagination of the caricaturist. The result is a recognizable, animated caricature, generated by computer and mediated by an individual who may or may not have facility for drawing, but who, like most human beings, is expert at visualizing and recognizing faces.

Example-Based Caricature Generation with Exaggeration
In this paper, we present a system that automatically generates caricatures from input face images. From example caricatures drawn by an artist, our caricature system learns how an artist draws caricatures. In our approach, we decouple the process of caricature generation into two parts, i.e., shape exaggeration and texture style transferring. The exaggeration of a caricature is accomplished by...
متن کاملWebCaricature: a benchmark for caricature face recognition
Caricatures are facial drawings by artists with exaggeration on certain facial parts. The exaggerations are often beyond realism and yet the caricatures are still recognizable by humans. With the advent of deep learning, recognition performances by computers on real-world faces has become comparable to human performance even under unconstrained situations. However, there is still a gap in caric...
متن کاملPhoto-to-Caricature Translation on Faces in the Wild
Recently, image-to-image translation has been made much progress owing to the success of conditional Generative Adversarial Networks (cGANs). However, it’s still very challenging for translation tasks with the requirement of high-level visual information conversion, such as phototo-caricature translation that requires satire, exaggeration, lifelikeness and artistry. We present an approach for l...
متن کاملCaricature and face recognition.
Although caricatures are often gross distortions of faces, they frequently appear to be super-portraits capable of eliciting recognition better than veridical depictions. This may occur because faces are encoded as distinctive feature deviations from a prototype. The exaggeration of these deviations in a caricature may enhance recognition because it emphasizes the features of the face that are ...
متن کاملCaricature video
We make moving caricatures from videos on human faces. Using training images, we created a 3D model of an average face. This allows us to transform the image in each frame of an input video, so that it is seen from the front. Then we apply 2D exaggeration rules to caricature each face. Finally, we rotate the face in each frame back to its original position. A panel of viewers gave positive scor...
