At present there are many methods that could deal well with frontal view face recognition. However, most of them cannot work well when there is only one training image per person. In this paper, an extension of the eigenface technique, i.e. (PC)A, is proposed. (PC)A combines the original face image with its horizontal and vertical projections and then performs principal component analysis on th...

We present a face recognition system able to identify people from a single non-frontal image in an arbitrary pose. The key component of the system is a novel pose correction technique based on Active Appearance Models (AAMs), which is used to remap probe images into a frontal pose similar to that of gallery images. The method generalises previous pose correction algorithms based on AAMs to mult...

Face detection is the first important step in many face image processing applications. Although a lot of work has been done on detecting frontal faces much less effort has been put into detecting faces with large image-plane or depth rotations. Most templates used in face detection are whole-face templates. However, such templates are ineffective for faces significantly rotated in depth. We pro...

Most face recognition and tracking techniques employed in surveillance and human-computer interaction (HCI) systems rely on the assumption of a frontal view of the human face. In alternative approaches, knowledge of the orientation angle of the face in captured images can improve the performance of techniques based on non-frontal face views. In this paper, we propose a collaborative technique f...

A framework for pose-invariant face recognition using the pose alignment method is described in this paper. The main idea is to normalize the face view in depth to frontal view as the input of face recognition framework. Concretely, an inputted face image is first normalized using the irises information, and then the pose subspace algorithm is employed to perform the pose estimation. To well mo...

Methods Normally the 3D skull data from individual patients can be obtained from CT scanner. However, the overhead expenses and the maintenance costs of a CT machine have deterred many dentists and orthodontists from possessing the machine, so only a few orthodontists use the CT for diagnosis and treatment comparing to the x-ray images that are standard procedures for orthodontic measurements. ...

We present a novel method for caricature synthesis based on mean value coordinates (MVC). Our method can be applied to any single frontal face image to learn a specified caricature face pair for frontal and 3D caricature synthesis. This technique only requires one or a small number of exemplar pairs and a natural frontal face image training set, while the system can transfer the style of the ex...

eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (emdr) process encompasses several nervous system components such as medulla, pons, midbrain, cerebellum, basal ganglia, parietal, frontal and occipital lobes. the role of eye movement (em) has been documented previously in relation with cognitive processing mechanisms. by emdr we can reach some parts of memory which were inaccessible before and als...
