For each avatar, testing images are rendered for different facial expressions that each have ground truth facial action units. An instance of a machine learning model is applied to the testing images to generate predicted facial action units for each testing image. A predictive performance of the instance is calculated for each avatar based on the predicted and ground truth facial action units for the testing images of the avatar. A first set of features common to the avatars for which the predictive performance was better than a first threshold, and a second set of features common to the avatars for which the predictive performance was worse than a second threshold, are identified. The features present only in the second set are identified, as difference features. New avatars having the difference features are generated.
