چکیده

This paper shows that Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) can be effectively applied to 3D face data. The examined HMM techniques are shown to be superior to a previously examined Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) technique. Experiments conducted on the Face Recognition Grand Challenge database show that the Equal Error Rate can be reduced from 0.88% for the GMM technique to 0.36% for the best HMM approach.

2D-3D Hybrid Face Recognition Based on PCA and Feature Modelling

Hybrid face recognition, using image (2D) and structural (3D) information, has explored the fusion of Nearest Neighbour classifiers. This paper examines the effectiveness of feature modelling for each individual modality, 2D and 3D. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the fusion of feature modelling techniques for the 2D and 3D modalities yields performance improvements over the individual cla...

Comparison Comparison PCA Train GMM Feature Reduction Classify GMM Threshold

A new approach to face verification from 3D data is presented. The method uses 3D registration techniques designed to work with resolution levels typical of the irregular point cloud representations provided by Structured Light scanning. Preprocessing using a-priori information of the human face and the Iterative Closest Point algorithm are employed to establish correspondence between test and ...

Integrated-approach-based Automatic Building Extraction

This paper presents an approach to automatic building extraction from large-scale aerial images. It is based on the integration of multiple information, knowledge and appropriate methods, and hierarchically consists of three major parts: building detection, building segment extraction, 3D feature matching and building modelling. Buildings are detected by segmenting DSMs using grey-scale mathema...
