Many face database and recognition systems have been constructed in specially designed studios with various illuminations, poses, and expressions. However, none of these databases...
This paper presents a novel statistical shape model that can be used to detect and localise feature points of a class of objects in images. The shape model is inspired from the 3D...
We propose a method to measure similarity of shape for 3D objects using 3-dimensional shape subspaces produced by the factorization method. We establish an index of shape similarit...
In this paper, we introduce a new approach for partial 3D face recognition, which makes use of shape decomposition over the rigid1 part of a face. To explore the descriptiveness o...
The distribution of the apparent 3D shape of human faces across the view-sphere is complex, owing to factors such as variations in identity, facial expression, minor occlusions an...
