Methods for age appearance simulation

Abstract:

Methods and systems for age appearance simulation of a consumer. The method includes receiving an image of the consumer (including a face of the consumer), determining an ethnicity of the consumer, determining an age of the patient, and determining a desired simulated age of the consumer. An altered image to represent the desired simulated age of the consumer may then be created, where altering the image includes utilizing a statistical ethnic aging model to alter at least one of a shape of the face, a color of the face, and a texture of the face. The altered image the first altered image may be provided for display to the consumer.
