This document summarizes a student project on face morphing using image processing. It presents an algorithm that automatically extracts feature points from faces and performs morphing between images. The algorithm involves pre-processing images, finding features like the eyes and mouth, partitioning images based on features, performing coordinate transformations, and cross-dissolving images to create intermediate morphs. Examples are shown of morphing between human and animal faces and between male and female faces. The algorithm focuses on accurate eye detection and achieved an 84% detection rate.

Introduction
 “Morphing” is an interpolation technique used to
create a series of intermediate objects from two
objects.
 “The face - morphing algorithm” automatically
extracts feature points on the face and morphing is
performed.
 This algorithm is proposed by Mr. M.Biesel within
Bayesian framework to do automatic face morphing.
Outline of the Algorithm
Pre – Processing
removing the noisy backgrounds

clipping to get a proper facial image, and

scaling the image to a reasonable size. 


Feature Finding
Here we find 4 major feature points, namely the two eyes, and the two end-points of the mouth.

Eye - finding
Feature Finding
 We first compute the complexity map
 we multiply the complexity map by a weighting function.
 we find the three highest peaks in the weighted complexity
map .
 Finally, the similarity is measured in the correlation-coefficient
sense
Image Partitioning
Feature finder can gives the positions of the eyes and the end
points of the mouth, so we get 4 feature points.

We generate 6 more feature points around the face edge.

Contd….
Image Partitioning
Based on these 10 feature points, 16 non-overlapping
triangular or quadrangular regions developed

As the feature points are at different positions, we do


warping between images.

Cross-Dissolving
The last phase of face - morphing
Cross-dissolving is described by the following equation,

where A,B are the pair of images, and C is the


morphing result.

Conclusion
 We believe that feature extraction is the key
technique for automatic face morphing algorithms.

 More and more feature points give the better result

 Therefore, in this presentation we emphasized on


eye-finder.

 This algorithm, is successful in eye detection rate by


84%.
