Illumination invariance remains the most researched, yet the most challenging aspect of automatic face recognition. In this paper we propose a novel, general recognition framework...
Current two-dimensional image based face recognition systems encounter difficulties with large facial appearance variations due to the pose, illumination and expression changes. ...
Although facial feature detection from 2D images is a well-studied field, there is a lack of real-time methods that estimate feature points even on low quality images. Here we pr...
We present our system for the capturing and analysis of 3D facial motion. A high speed camera is used as capture unit in combination with two surface mirrors. The mirrors provide ...
We propose a simplified and practical computational technique for estimating directional lighting in uncalibrated images of faces in frontal pose. We show that this inverse probl...
