SelfID: How to make personal ID photo using selfie

Abstract

Selfies have perspective distortion problem because of a short distance between face and camera. The closer the distance is, the worse the perspective distortion problem. To resolve this problem, the portrait should be taken from long distance. In this paper, the proposed method, referred to as SelfID, solves this problem by manipulating perspective distortion without taking the portrait from long distance. Ultimately, ID photo that looks like taken from long distance is created from the selfie taken from short distance using simple 3-dimensional model fitting.
