ABSTRACT
When scanning an actor's face in multiple static facial expressions, it is often desirable for the resulting scans to all have the same topology and for the textures to all be in the same UV space. Such "corresponded" scans would enable the straightforward creation of blendshape-based facial rigs. We present Vuvuzela, a semi-automated facial scan correspondence tool. Vuvuzela is currently being used in our facial rigging pipeline, and was one of the key tools in the Digital Ira project.

Collaborative expression representation using peak expression and intra class variation face images for practical subject-independent emotion recognition in videos
This paper proposes a facial expression recognition (FER) method in videos. The proposed method automatically selects the peak expression face from a video sequence using closeness of the face to the neutral expression. The severely non-frontal faces ...
Face recognition under varying illumination using gradientfaces
In this correspondence, we propose a novel method to extract illumination insensitive features for face recognition under varying lighting called the Gradientfaces. Theoretical analysis shows Gradientfaces is an illumination insensitive measure, and ...
Open-set face recognition across look-alike faces in real-world scenarios
The open-set problem is among the problems that have significantly changed the performance of face recognition algorithms in real-world scenarios. Open-set operates under the supposition that not all the probes have a pair in the gallery. Most face ...
