Implicit Neural Head Synthesis via Controllable Local Deformation Fields. (arXiv:2304.11113v1 [cs.CV])

High-quality reconstruction of controllable 3D head avatars from 2D videos is
highly desirable for virtual human applications in movies, games, and
telepresence. Neural implicit fields provide a powerful representation to model
3D head avatars with personalized shape, expressions, and facial parts, e.g.,
hair and mouth interior, that go beyond the linear 3D morphable model (3DMM).
However, existing methods do not model faces with fine-scale facial features,
or local control of facial parts that extrapolate asymmetric expressions from
monocular videos. Further, …
