Facial Expression Cloning with Elastic and Muscle Models

A novel algorithm is proposed for facial expression cloning. The algorithm uses a new elastic model to balance the global and local warping effects. A muscle-distribution-based (MD) model is proposed, which utilizes the muscle distribution of the human face.
