The significant advances in developing high-speed shape acquisition devices make it possible to capture the moving and deforming objects at video speeds. However, due to its complicated nature, it is technically challenging to effectively model and store the captured motion data. In this paper, we present a set of algorithms to construct geometry videos for 3D facial expressions, including hole filling, geodesic-based face segmentation, and expression-invariant parametrization. Our algorithms are efficient and robust, and can guarantee the exact correspondence of the salient features (eyes, mouth and nose). Geometry video naturally bridges the 3D motion data and 2D video, and provides …
