Interactive change of lighting in the portrait images

We are facing a number of applications for altering portrait photographs using the help of artificial intelligence. Apart from the entertainment purposes, modern computer technologies can also help us get dynamic effects from static images, an example of which is the subject of this study. Dealing with the change of lighting in portraits photographs through real-time rendering, this paper provides a method of obtaining an image with variable light source that affects the facial features generated on the basis of the face tracking data acquired from the existing static photograph. Thus, we get a portrait with altered light, as if such a source was present at the actual moment of photographing. This method aims to improve or even change the visual experience when viewing the image, so that its further application corresponds to the given context.
