abstract = {We present a method for creating black-and-white illustrations
from photographs of human faces. In addition an interactive
technique is demonstrated for deforming these black-and-white
facial illustrations to create caricatures which highlight and
exaggerate representative facial features.We evaluate the
effectiveness of the resulting images through psychophysical
studies to assess accuracy and speed in both recognition and
learning tasks. These studies show that the facial illustrations
and caricatures generated using our techniques are as effective as
photographs in recognition tasks. For the learning task we find
that illustrations are learned two times faster than photographs
and caricatures are learned one and a half times faster than
photographs. Because our techniques produce images that are
effective at communicating complex information, they are useful in
a number of potential applications, ranging from entertainment and
education to low bandwidth telecommunications and psychology
research.},
