Automated avatar generation

Abstract:

Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for generating facial representations using image segmentation with a client device. The systems and methods receive an image depicting a face, detect at least a portion of the face within the image, and identify a set of facial landmarks within the portion of the face. The systems and methods determine one or more characteristics representing the portion of the face, in response to detecting the portion of the face. Based on the one or more characteristics and the set of facial landmarks, the systems and methods generate a representation of a face.
