3D face view generation from human drawn sketch: A review

From last few decades, generating a 3D face model from an human drawn sketch has caught the interest of many researchers in the area of image processing and face recognition. It has various applications in 3D cartoon modelling, police investigation and verification, and in Image Processing. Many techniques are there to generate 3D models from a sketch. 3D landmark estimation, 2D landmark detection, and synthesis of texture and surface with respect to 3-D morphable model are the steps, respectively, to generate the 3D face model. 3D face modelling using these steps has a higher rate of accuracy of identification of a person from her sketch and no proper photograph. In this piece of literature, we present a review on efficient technique that can be used to generate 3D face from sketch drawn by human.
