Photometric stereo algorithms use a Lambertian reflectance model with a varying albedo field and involve the appearances of only one object. This paper extends photometric stereo a...

We present a novel approach to 3D face recognition using compact face signatures based on automatically detected 3D landmarks. We represent the face geometry with inter-landmark d...
Generative 3D face models are a powerful tool in computer vision. They provide pose and illumination invariance by modeling the space of 3D faces and the imaging process. The powe...

A novel surveillance system integrating 2D and 3D facial data is presented in this paper, based on a low-cost sensor capable of real-time acquisition of 3D images and associated c...
In this paper, we propose two novel methods for face recognition under arbitrary unknown lighting by using spherical harmonics illumination representation, which require only one t...
