Abstract(in English) Recently, face image synthesis by computer graphics is focused in research areas like communication system and human interface with avatar. To realize very natural communication environment between computer and human, face-to-face style communication is essential and non-verbal information like face expression has to be synthesized. In this paper, an accurate measurement method of facial expression using a range sensor is presented. Modification rule for each basic expression is defined as the difference between neutral face and each basic face. Basically, a generic face model is fitted to both neutral face and each basic expression and then the rule is defined as a movement of each vertex. And also an Facial Motion Distribution chart is introduced as the interpolation of movement of each vertex and an user defined face model with any arbitral geometry structure can be control led with this expression rule.
