Morphing Technique for Creating Composites of Face Images

Face morphing is a technique that makes a transition from one face image to another face image. It has been extensively used in multiple fields of work, such as animation, movie production, games, and mobile applications. There are two types of methods used to conduct face morphing. First is semiautomatic mapping methods, in which users map corresponding pixels between two face images, and produce a transition of result images. Mapping the corresponding pixel between two facial images is usually not trivial. And second morphing method is fully automatic method. It is used for morphing between two images having similar face properties, where the results depend on the similarity of the input face images. This paper describes a method for creating composites with only parts of the face being morphed of facial images. Applications of this technique show how to change only local aspects of a facial image. The experimental results show that position of each face component plays a more important role than the edge and color of the face.
