Claim One:
1. A method to imitate lifelike images for computer deformed objects, comprising: selecting a number of significant points on a surface of an object; categorizing the significant points into a number of measurable points and a number of specific points, wherein the measurable points are predetermined points on the surface of the object and each measurable point has displacement, and wherein the specific points are determined in response to a change on the surface of the object; defining a relationship between the measurable points and the specific points with a statistical regression analysis; creating a table of weighted values for the specific points based on the relationship defined through the statistical regression analysis; and animating a deformed object based on the weighted values table, wherein the statistical regression analysis includes a first-order multiple linear regression model, and the first-order multiple linear regression model is solved by a least square approximation to calculate the weighted values.
