Morphing face images using automatically specified features

In this paper, we present a method using which face images can be automatically warped and morphed. Image warping can be defined as a method for deforming a digital image to different shapes. Image morphing combines image warping with a method that controls the color transition in the intermediate images produced. To morph one image to another, new positions and color transition rates for the pixels in each of the images in the sequence must be calculated. Three processes are involved; feature specification, warp generation and transition control
