Human Facial Motion Analysis and Synthesis with Application to Model-Based Coding

Model-based coding is a new framework for image compression [1, 11, 15, 33]. In contrast to the conventional waveform coding schemes which encode and reproduce waveforms of image signals, model-based coding makes use of 3-D properties of the objects in the scene, and analyzes and transmits parameters for the objects. Because the encoder transmits only the required parameters, extremely low bit rate image transmission can be potentially realized.
