The very first step in many facial analysis systems is face detection. Though face detection
has been studied for many years, there is not still a benchmark public database to be widely …

A method of reconstructing biometric face image templates of a face recognition system
(FRS) using the match scores or distances provided by the FRS. The match scores represent …

Cumulative foot pressure images represent the 2D ground reaction force during one gait
cycle. Biomedical and forensic studies show that humans can be distinguished by unique …

This paper presents a new database suitable for both 2-D and 3-D face recognition based
on photometric stereo (PS): the Photoface database. The database was collected using a …

A novel, linear modeling method to model a face recognition algorithm based on the match
scores produced by the algorithm. Starting with a distance matrix representing the pair-wise …

A robust sparse bounding sphere representation (RSBSR) is proposed to analyze 3D facial
data. There are many obstacles to distinguishing facial differences, such as large pose and …

Among different approaches for 3D face recognition, solutions based on local facial
characteristics are very promising, mainly because they can manage facial expression …

The increasing availability of 3D facial data offers the potential to overcome the intrinsic
difficulties faced by conventional face recognition using 2D images. Instead of extending 2D …

In this paper, we present a 3d face recognition method that is robust to changes in facial
expressions. Instead of locating many feature points, we just need to locate the nose tip as a …

Landmark annotation for training images is essential for many learning tasks in computer
vision, such as object detection, tracking, and alignment. Image annotation is typically …
