Auto-TLDR; Adaptive Polynomial Model for Face Distortion Correction in Selfie Photos

Poster Similar

The age of social media insists on developing devices that are able to capture and share ones' moments with high fidelity. Handheld devices such as smartphones with wide-angle cameras have shown the current trend in mobile photography. Although one can take great delight in a wide field of view through modern cameras, nearby objects or faces may be distorted significantly. Recent works have obtained impressive results in this research area, but there is still a tradeoff between image quality and processing time to consider. This work introduces an adaptive polynomial model that automatically selects faces and performs image distortion correction. Since the photos are processed locally, faces are undistorted, and the background is close to the original state. Unlike other content-aware based methods which rely on heavy computing components and high image resolution, our model is suitable for mobile devices to tackle face distortion issue in selfie photos.
