Method and apparatus for generating three-dimensional caricature using shape and texture of face

Abstract

Provided is a method and apparatus for generating a three-dimensional (3D) caricature. The apparatus for generating a 3D caricature may include a 3D face data generation unit to generate 3D face data of a user corresponding to a shape and a texture of a face of the user, a 3D unique face model generation unit to generate a 3D unique face model using a shape and a texture of a unique face based on the 3D face data and a reference face, and a 3D caricature generation unit to generate a 3D caricature using the 3D unique face model and a caricature base face model.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
