Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a method and a device for generating a cartoonlike figure image. The method for generating the cartoon figure image comprises the following steps: a figure image is acquired; a facial feature point set is obtained by processing the acquired figure image; a facial component cartoon template is selected according to the shape of the facial feature point set; the cartoonlike figure image is generated by assembling the chosen facial component cartoon template according to the relative position of the facial feature point set; the facial feature point set comprises a facial organ feature point set and/or a facial outline point set; and the facial component cartoon template comprises a facial organ template and/or a facial shape template. As the technical scheme provided by the invention makes full use of facial feature information in the figure image, the generated cartoonlike image can better reflect facial features of the figure. Moreover, the invention can effectively avoid facial position disproportion and facial feature disproportion.
