چکیده

The distribution of the apparent 3D shape of human faces across the view-sphere is complex, owing to factors such as variations in identity, facial expression, minor occlusions and noise. In this paper, we use the technique of Support Vector Regression to learn a model relating facial shape (obtained from 3D scanners) to 3D pose in an identity-invariant manner. The proposed method yields an estimation accuracy of 97% to 99% within an error of +/9 degrees on a large set of data obtained from two different sources. The method could be used for pose estimation in a view-invariant face recognition system.

Hybridization of Facial Features and Use of Multi Modal Information for 3D Face Recognition

Despite of achieving good performance in controlled environment, the conventional 3D face recognition systems still encounter problems in handling the large variations in lighting conditions, facial expression and head pose The humans use the hybrid approach to recognize faces and therefore in this proposed method the human face recognition ability is incorporated by combining global and local ...

Automatic 3D Facial Region Retrieval from Multi-pose Facial Datasets

The availability of 3D facial datasets is rapidly growing, mainly as a result of medical and biometric applications. These applications often require the retrieval of specific facial areas (such as the nasal region). The most crucial step in facial region retrieval is the detection of key 3D facial landmarks (e.g., the nose tip). A key advantage of 3D facial data over 2D facial data is their po...

The utility of 3D landmarks for arbitrary pose face recognition

We investigate the utility of 3D facial landmark localisation in addressing the varying pose problem in 3D face recognition. We do not focus on the 3D landmark localisation problem itself, rather, we ask: Given the set of salient landmarks visible at some specific pose, what 3D face recognition performance can we expect, given that statistical training was performed at some other (canonical) po...

Landmark Detection for Unconstrained Face Recognition

In this dissertation a novel method for 3D landmark detection and pose estimation, suitable for both frontal and side 3D facial scans, is presented. It exploits 3D and 2D information by using local shape descriptors to extract candidate interest points that are subsequently identified and labeled as anatomical landmarks. Additionally, a novel generalized framework for combining facial feature d...

D View - Invariant Face Recognition Using a Hierarchical Pose - Normalization Strategy

Face recognition from 3D shape data has been proposed as a method of biometric identification as a way of either supplementing or reinforcing a 2D approach. This paper presents a 3D face recognition system capable of recognizing the identity of an individual from a 3D facial scan in any pose across the view-sphere, by suitably comparing it with a set of models (all in frontal pose) stored in a ...
