Research on an Automatic System that Generates Portraits from Facial Images Using Neural Networks

－A discussion of improving protrays the contours of the face and eyes－

Abstract

This article is a consecutive study on automatic generation of portrait by using neural network. The previous study has the problem that the generated portrait was not very similar to the face photograph. This paper proposed an algorithm that only focuses on researching the outline of jaw instead of entire face. Besides, the method of eye shape generation has also been changed. From the results it is proved that the similarity between generated portrait and face photograph has been greatly improved .
