Transform image from a side to front face view
Question:
I’m continiously working with face recognition issues and finally decided to try to solve the main one: how to transform face image from partial / side view to front view? The similar issue raised here at Stackoverflow but the only proposals are not working / accesible. ..Well, it’s easy to get face landmarks with dlib or mediapipe and rotate image to make eyes’ line horizontal. It’s easy to estimate face pose with that libs too (either a face is really rotated or left/right/up/down turned). But how, having 468-points 3d Mediapipe face mesh to rotate it, creating new image of front face view..? Any ideas are welcome! I’m working with Python but if you have other solutions – I’ll try to use your algorithm.
Answers:
I don’t know if it helps but I have recently worked on style transfer using GAN’s. I really hope that you can find the solution you are looking through some type of GAN.
