摘要:
Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with creating an avatar video are disclosed herein. In embodiments, the apparatus may one or more facial expression engines, an animation-rendering engine, and a video generator. The one or more facial expression engines may be configured to receive video, voice and/or text inputs, and, in response, generate a plurality of animation messages having facial expression parameters that depict facial expressions for a plurality of avatars based at least in part on the video, voice and/or text inputs received. The animation-rendering engine may be configured to receive the one or more animation messages, and drive a plurality of avatar models, to animate and render the plurality of avatars with the facial expression depicted. The video generator may be configured to capture the animation and rendering of the plurality of avatars, to generate a video. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Disclosed herein is an image processing apparatus (100), including a representative face extraction unit (114) configured to detect face images in an image frame that forms part of video image data, and select, from the detected face images, a face image to be used as index information. The representative face extraction unit (114) is configured to calculate a score of each of the face images detected in the image frame based on characteristics of the face image, and select a detected face image whose score is high as an index-use face image.

Systems and methods of smile detection are disclosed. An exemplary method comprises generating a search map for a subset of an image. The method also comprises identifying a plurality of candidates representing mouth corners. The method also comprises generating parabolas between each pair of candidates representing mouth corners. The method also comprises analyzing contour of at least one of the parabolas to determine whether the mouth curves substantially upward to form a smile or curves substantially downward to form a frown.
