چکیده

Face recognition is a very challenging issue and has attracted much attention over the past decades. This paper makes a new attempt to face recognition based on 3D point clouds by constructing 3D eigenfaces. First, a 3D mesh model is built to represent the face shape provided by the point cloud. Then, the principle component analysis (PCA) is used to construct the 3D eigenfaces, which describe each mesh model in a lower-dimensional space. Finally, the nearest neighbor classifier and K-nearest neighbor classifier are utilized for recognition. Experimental results on 3D_RMA, a likely largest 3D face database available currently, show that the proposed algorithm has promising performance with a low computational cost.

3D Face Recognition using Patch Geodesic Derivative Pattern

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...

A New Optimized Approach to Face Recognition Using EigenFaces

Eigenface approach is one of the simplest and most efficient methods for face recognition. In eigenface approach chosing the threshold, value is a very important factor for performance of face recognition. In addition, the dimensional reduction of face space depends upon number of eigenfaces taken. In this paper, an optimized solution for face recognition is given by taking the optimized value ...

Face Recognition by Cognitive Discriminant Features

Face recognition is still an active pattern analysis topic. Faces have already been treated as objects or textures, but human face recognition system takes a different approach in face recognition. People refer to faces by their most discriminant features. People usually describe faces in sentences like ``She's snub-nosed'' or ``he's got long nose'' or ``he's got round eyes'' and so like. These...

Summary : ” Eigenfaces for Recognition ” ( M . Turk , A . Pentland )

”Eigenfaces for Recognition” seeks to implement a system capable of efficient, simple, and accurate face recognition in a constrained environment (such as a household or an office). The system does not depend on 3-D models or intuitive knowledge of the structure of the face (eyes, nose, mouth). Classification is instead performed using a linear combination of characteristic features (eigenfaces...
