The appearance of a human face changes with the change in body weight and age. With varying lifestyle choices, it is hard to imagine the appearance of a given human face in years to come. Future self-perception is highly associated with one's emotional state, as well as health behavior. Negative future self-perception can cause negative lifestyle choice and negative health behavior, leading to depression and eating disorder. In this paper, a new methodology is introduced for future self-face image synthesis using age and weight, resulting in visualization of future face image derived from given weight category and age. A Constrained Local Model is first used for weight progressed future face image synthesized and then age-progressed future face image is generated using Conditional Adversarial Auto Encoder. In the final step, both weight progressed and age-progressed face images fed to face morphing module which synthesized future face image by keeping natural looks. Experimental results show the advantages of proposed method with promising results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
