IRIS-3DMM Version 1.0 revision 1

An implementation of 3DMM fitting algorithm proposed by [2] and [3] to solve the 3D face modeling from a single image problem. A modified version was used to generate training data for [1].

Compilation:

Platforms: Linux

Important note: To use the code as is, you will need to ask for an access to the Basel Face Model database. Without this license, I'm not allowed to redistribute it.

0. Send an email to anstar1111@gmail.com or jongmoochoi@gmail.com with a proof of your permission to use Basel Face Model. We will give you the binary data (BaselFace.dat). Copy it to lib directory.

1. Get Ubuntu 64 bit 12.04 or later

2. Install cmake:

		apt-get install cmake

3. Install opencv (2.4.6 or higher is recommended)
4. Install boost library (1.5 or higher is recommended):

		apt-get install libboost-all-dev

5. Install OpenGL, freeglut, and glew

		sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev
		sudo apt-get install libglew-dev

6. Make build directory (temporary). Make & install to bin folder:

		mkdir build
		cd build
		cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../bin ..
		make
		make install

The executable file IRIS_3DMM is in folder bin

Examples:

Model 3D face for a single image (./script/iris3d_file.sh) or all images in a folder (./script/iris3d_dir.sh)

0. Create output folder (e.g. ./output)
1. Copy the script into ./bin
2. Provide the input/output path inside the script
3. Run the script

Usage

./IRIS_3DMM {paramName paramValue}

Behaviours:

• Output a set of files: 3D model (.ply), cropped image (.ply_cropped.png), shape parameters (.alpha), texture parameters (.beta), and render parameters (.rend). The render parameters include: rotation angles (3), translation (3), ambient light (3), diffuse light (3), light direction (2), and color model parameters (7).
• Default instrinsic camera matrix: [-1000 0 w/2; 0 1000 h/2; 0 0 1] (w & h are width & height of the cropped image)
• To avoid some runtime errors, this program works on maximum 36 images per run. It saves index of the last processed image into file startF.txt. You can continue to process the next images by passing parameter "-con 1" in the next run. After finishing, it saves -1 into startF.txt.
• If the output model file (.ply) exists, the program will skip it and goes to the next one. Hence, if you want to re-generates 3D models, you need to clean up the output folder before running.

Parameters:

• General:

	-mloc    : path of ccnf model
	-fdloc   : path of face detector cascade
	-clmwild : (optinal) use trained model for images in the wild. No value is needed
	-con	 : (optinal) model images from the begining (0-default), or from a specifice index defined in file startF.txt
		   E.g. when the input folder has 300 images, but you want to model the last 100 images only, you can set the number 
in startF as 200 and run the program with parameter "-con 1"

• From file

	-f	 : input file
	-of	 : output file

• From directory

	-fdir	 : input directory
	-ofdir	 : output directory
