Pose and Expression-Invariant 3D Face Recognition using Elastic Radial Curves
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we explore the use of shapes of elastic radial curves to model 3D facial deformations, caused by changes in facial expressions. We represent facial surfaces by indexed collections of radial curves on them, emanating from the nose tips, and compare the facial shapes by comparing the shapes of their corresponding curves. Using a past approach on elastic shape analysis of curves, we obtain an algorithm for comparing facial surfaces. We also introduce a quality control module which allows our approach to be robust to pose variation and missing data. Comparative evaluation using a common experimental setup on GAVAB dataset, considered as the most expression-rich and noise-prone 3D face dataset, shows that our approach outperforms other state-of-the-art approaches.

3D Face Recognition Using Geodesic Facial Curves to Handle Expression, Occlusion and Pose Variations
this paper illustrates the use of radial facial curves on 3D meshes to mode facial deformation caused by expression, occlusion and variation in poses and to recognize faces despite large expression, in presence of occlusion and pose variations. Here we represent facial surface by indexed collection of radial geodesic curves on 3D face meshes emanating from nose tip to the boundary of mesh and c...

In this paper, a novel Patch Geodesic Derivative Pattern (PGDP) describing the texture map of a face through its shape data is proposed. Geodesic adjusted textures are encoded into derivative patterns for similarity measurement between two 3D images with different pose and expression variations. An extensive experimental investigation is conducted using the publicly available Bosphorus and BU-3...

In this paper, a novel 3D Bending Invariant Correlative Features (3D BI-LBP) is used for 3D face recognition to overcome some of the unsolved problems encountered with 3D facial images. In this challenging topic, large expression and pose variations along with data noise are three major obstacles. We first exploit an automatic procedure regarding face area extraction, and then process it to min...
