35公里 写道 "《纽约时报》报道，以色列特拉维夫大学的计算机科学家最近推出一个计算机程序，通过对人脸照片中的五官的几何结构进行调整，使人看上去更漂亮，同时最大限度地保持人的相貌不发生改变。 该程序并非影楼常用的那种数字修饰软件，它不是通过改变头发颜色，去皱纹等方式让人看上去更漂亮。相反，他们从人的面部找出234个可测量的特征，通过计算机，对这些特征进行调整，经过测试，绝大多数计算机调整过的面容显得更漂亮，更吸引人。以下是一组用该程序调整过的面容的对照照片，左边的是原始照片，右边的是调整过的照片。 " Tommer Leyvand是“美化软件”的4位开发者之一，他为微软工作。研究论文在8月份召开的ACM SIGGRAPH 2008大会上公开（PDF，视频）。

Here are the minimum and recommended requirements ...
