چکیده

Many researches in face recognition have been dealing with the challenge of the great variability in head pose, lighting intensity and direction,facial expression, and aging. The main purpose of this overview is to describe the recent 3D face recognition algorithms. The last few years more and more 2D face recognition algorithms are improved and tested on less than perfect images. However, 3D models hold more information of the face, like surface information, that can be used for face recognition or subject discrimination. Another major advantage is that 3D face recognition is pose invariant. A disadvantage of most presented 3D face recognition methods is that they still treat the human face as a rigid object. This means that the methods aren’t capable of handling facial expressions. Although 2D face recognition still seems to outperform the 3D face recognition methods, it is expected that this will change in the near future.

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 Survey of Different 3D Face Reconstruction Methods

3D face reconstruction is a very challenging problem in computer vision, and is used as a prerequisite for many important vision tasks, e.g., face recognition and face frontalization. The importance of 3D face reconstruction is that we can estimate illumination and pose information by using the 3D shape of the face. Since the human face is a non-rigid 3D object, estimating the 2D shape of the f...

Face recognition : two-dimensional and three-dimensional techniques

2 ABSTRACT We explore the field of automated face recognition. Beginning with a survey of existing methods applied to two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) face data, we focus on subspace techniques, investigating the use of image pre-processing applied as a preliminary step in order to reduce error rates. We implement the eigenface and Fisherface methods of face recognition, computin...

A survey of approaches and challenges in 3D and multi-modal 3D + 2D face recognition

This survey focuses on recognition performed by matching models of the three-dimensional shape of the face, either alone or in combination with matching corresponding two-dimensional intensity images. Research trends to date are summarized, and challenges confronting the development of more accurate three-dimensional face recognition are identified. These challenges include the need for better ...
