Image morphing has received much atten- tion in recent years. It has proven to be a powerful tool for visual effects in film and television, enabling the fluid transfor- mation of one digital image into another. This paper surveys the growth of this field And describes recent advances in image Morphing in terms of feature specification, Warp generation methods, and transition Control. These areas relate to the ease of Use and quality of results. We describe The role of radial basis functions, thin plate Splines, energy minimization, and multiev- El free-form deformations in advancing the State-of-the-art in image morphing. Recent Work on a generalized framework for Morphing among multiple images is de- Scribed.
