  1. 1. Optimizing Realistic 3D Facial Models for VR Avatars through Mesh Simplification

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Beiqian Liu; [2023]
    Keywords : Mesh Simplification; Virtual Reality; Realistic Avatars; 3D Face Reconstruction;

    Abstract : The use of realistic 3D avatars in Virtual Reality (VR) has gained significant traction in applications such as telecommunication and gaming, offering immersive experiences and face-to-face interactions. However, standalone VR devices often face limitations in computational resources and real-time rendering requirements, necessitating the optimization of 3D models through mesh simplification to enhance performance and ensure a smooth user experience.

  3. 2. The Effect of Beautification Filters on Image Recognition : "Are filtered social media images viable Open Source Intelligence?"

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för informationsteknologi

    Author : Vasilios Skepetzis; Pontus Hedman; [2021]
    Keywords : face recognition; OSINT; machine learning; deep learning; convolutional neural networks; social media filters; u-net; residual neural network; Ansiktsigenkänning; OSINT; maskininlärning; djupinlärning; faltningsnätverk; sociala media filter; u-net; residual neuronnät;

    Abstract : In light of the emergence of social media, and its abundance of facial imagery, facial recognition finds itself useful from an Open Source Intelligence standpoint. Images uploaded on social media are likely to be filtered, which can destroy or modify biometric features. READ MORE

  4. 3. Ancient Human Reconstructions and aDNA : Is there an ethical dilemma?

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Arkeologi

    Author : Anna Sointula; [2020]
    Keywords : Human and Facial reconstructions; Ethics; Ethnicity; Race; Cultural identity; Archaeogenetics; aDNA; Människo och ansiktsrekonstruktioner; Etik; Etnisitet; Ras; Kulturell Identitet; Arkeogenetik; aDNA;

    Abstract : In recent years, archaeogenetic studies have been widely discussed in popular media and they have raised many questions, especially regarding cultural identity and ethnicity. This thesis discusses reconstructions based on ancient human remains and how they are related to the current academic hegemony and political circumstances in Europe. READ MORE

  5. 4. An Exploration of Temporal Context in the Recollection of Previously Encoded Events

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Author : Madeleine McCallum; [2019]
    Keywords : Episodic memory; recollection; cued-recall; EEG; LPN; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : The effect of temporal context in the encoding and retrieval of facial stimuli was examined based on behavioural and EEG data collection during a cued recall memory task. Participants were found to have greater accuracy in their recollection of serial list items encoded before a correctly retrieved facial stimulus in comparison to those encoded after a correctly retrieved facial stimulus.

  6. 5. A New Hands-free Face to Face Video Communication Method : Profile based frontal face video reconstruction

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

    Author : Songyu LI; [2018]
    Keywords : video communication; Asymmetrical Principal Component Analysis; Edge Detection; Locally Linear Embedding; Dynamic Time Warping;

    Abstract : This thesis proposes a method to reconstruct a frontal facial video basedon encoding done with the facial profile of another video sequence.The reconstructed facial video will have the similar facial expressionchanges as the changes in the profile video. READ MORE
