Art Project including face detection, screenshot and Face TEXTURE MAP

[ecaillerose]

Hi !

I'm a art student in France, who do a lot of programmation stuffs ; for one of my project i'm kind of stucked.

I'm doing a code in Python that detect face coming through, take them and turn them into a Texture Map.

Since it's pretty easy to find it on youtube and internet, i was able to put a face detection code pretty easily, the other part is more difficult. I was trying to use 3DFace Reconstruction and 3DGANTex, but I think i must be really bad cause i don't even know how to launch these code in order to make them work. I don't know what to import and what run.

I just want to use library that already exist on GitHub and I'm not searching for a perfect anything, even a weird result will please me.

If someone can help me ! It would help me so much. Thanks u team !

Not sure what your desired outcome should look like, but:
If you want to do any modification to a bitmap picture , (lighter, darker, sharper, embossed...)
you should multiply the image file in question with a 5x5 convolution matrix.
The values in the matrix depend on the software you use and the effect you want to achieve.
I must admit, documentation is scarse and far between.
In photoshop they call it the 5x5 creativity filter.
