Abstract
In an image processing system, a scan of an actor is converted to a high-resolution two-dimensional map, which is converted to low-resolution map and to a facial rig model. Manipulations of the facial rig create a modified facial rig. A new low-resolution two-dimensional map can be obtained of the modified facial rig and a neural network can be used to generate a new high-resolution two-dimensional map that can be used to generate a mesh that is a mesh of the scan, modified by the manipulations of the facial rig.
