    Area of Science:

    • Computer Vision
    • 3D Modeling
    • Biometrics

    Background:

    • Three-dimensional morphable models (3DMMs) are essential for representing object classes in 3D.
    • Existing models often focus on specific parts, limiting comprehensive head representation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop the most complete 3DMM of the human head to date.
    • To integrate face, cranium, ears, eyes, teeth, and tongue into a unified model.
    • To enable detailed head reconstruction from single, unconstrained images.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed novel methods for combining overlapping 3DMMs: part completion using regressors and covariance matrix blending via Gaussian Processes.
    • Integrated existing face (LSFM) and head (LYHM) models, enhancing facial detail and full head modeling.
    • Fused a detailed ear model and incorporated eye, teeth, tongue, and inner mouth cavity models.

    Main Results:

    • Created the most complete human head 3DMM, encompassing face, cranium, ears, eyes, teeth, and tongue.
    • Achieved state-of-the-art performance in head model reconstruction.
    • Successfully reconstructed full head representations from single images, parameterizing craniofacial shape, texture, ear shape, eye gaze, and eye color.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed comprehensive 3DMM significantly advances human head modeling capabilities.
    • This model facilitates detailed analysis and reconstruction of craniofacial and head geometry.
    • Enables new applications in areas requiring precise 3D human head representation from imagery.
