Welcome to your ultimate resource for exploring the fascinating world of 3D Morphable Models (3DMM). This curated list aims to collect valuable data and algorithms stemming from the development of 3D Morphable Models.

Originating from the Dagstuhl seminar on 3D Morphable Models in March 2019, this list serves as an extensive guide for researchers and developers interested in the advancing field of 3D modeling. We encourage contributions to this list via a pull request!

This compilation is also designed to accompany our survey titled **3D Morphable Face Models – Past, Present and Future**, published in ACM Transactions on Graphics, 2020. For a more in-depth exploration, refer to the DOI: 10.1145/3395208, and access the survey on arXiv here.

Explore the Models

Here’s a breakdown of different types of models available:

• Face Models:
  • Basel Face Model 2009
  • Basel Face Model 2017
  • Large Scale 3D Morphable Model
  • Liverpool-York Head Model

Understanding the Components

To better understand how these models interact, think of them like a toolkit for a craftsman. Each tool (or model) has its specific purpose:

• Face Models represent the facial structure of a sculptor’s masterpiece. They provide the intricate details necessary for creating realistic facial expressions and features.
• Body Models act as the body frame for our characters, enabling them to move and be positioned in various stances while remaining lifelike.
• Other Models specialize in the finer elements, like ears or animal shapes, allowing for a diverse range of creations.

Troubleshooting & Engagement

If you encounter issues while navigating or using these models, consider the following troubleshooting tips:

• Ensure your internet connection is stable as many resources are hosted online.
• Check compatibility if you’re using specialized software or tools in conjunction with these models.
• If links are broken or missing, please report through appropriate channels so we can help maintain the integrity of this list.
