Government agencies are investing a considerable amount of resources into improving
security systems as result of recent terrorist events that dangerously exposed flaws and …

Many researches in face recognition have been dealing with the challenge of the great
variability in head pose, lighting intensity and direction, facial expression, and aging. The …

Active messages have proven to be an effective approach for certain communication
problems in high performance computing. Many MPI implementations, as well as runtimes …

Our team certainly regards 3D biometrics as a very potential research field, and has worked
on it since 2005. We are the first group that developed the 3D palmprint technology and …

Les gated communities, quartiers enclos et sécurisés interdits aux non-résidents,
construisent des ensembles dans lesquels l'espace public est privatisé, et proposent un …

2D Face recognition systems bound to fail on images with varying pose angles and
occlusions. Many pose invariant methods are proposed in recent years but they are still not …

A multimodal face verification process is presented for standard 2D color images, 2.5 D
range images and 3D meshes. A normalization in orientation and position is essential for 2.5 …

This paper presents a 3D face reconstruction method using multiple 2D face images.
Structure from motion (SfM) methods, which have been widely used to reconstruct 3D faces …

The traveling salesman problem (TSP) consists of finding the length of the shortest closed
tour visiting N" cities". We consider the Euclidean TSP where the cities are distributed …

We have proposed novel 3D virtual simulation software for breast plastic surgery. Our
software comprises two processes: a 3D torso modeling and a virtual simulation of the …
