#artificialintelligence

Have you ever wondered how the animojis on the iPhone X work? Don't worry, deep learning has the answer again. How about a technique that doesn't require any specific hardware, doesn't need a video of you (just a picture), and generates a 3D digital avatar with remarkable accuracy that can be animated in real time? This is not some far-off futuristic technology. A group of developers have released a research paper demonstrating how they used deep learning to build a digital 3D avatar of a person's head and face.
