ABSTRACT
Anthropomorphic animal face masking is the process where human characteristics are plotted on the animal kinds. The term anthropomorphic derived from anthropomorphism, which means displaying animals, gods, and other objects as if they are human in appearance, character, or behavior. In this research, we are proposing a compact automatic Control Point selection system based morphing process. Our compact system contains the Viola-Jones algorithm based Control Point selection system that detects facial features for the human face and takes the Control Points automatically. In addition, for the animal face Control Points, we made a predefined animal face set containing their corresponding Control Points. The whole process is done by firstly finding the Control Points and secondly, doing triangulation based morphing between the particular human face and the animal face. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed morphing method produces less deformation and at the same time manages to complete the morphing process without any human assistance.
