Can FLAME model close eyes?

[foamliu]

We'd like to use FLAME model to fit RGB-D photos, but seems unlike BFM, FLAME model never close her/his eyes. Is this observation valid?

FLAME is able to close the eyes / do an eye blink. You can see for instance the demo in the VOCA repository that animates the eyelids using FLAME. If your fitting does not close the eyes, this is either due to the supervision (i.e. imprecise eye landmarks) or a too high regularization for the expression parameters. Adding an additional loss to minimize the distance between the eyelid keypoints might help in this case.
