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 …

Abstract 3D face recognition has become a trending research direction in both industry and
academia. It inherits advantages from traditional 2D face recognition, such as the natural …

Government agencies are investing a considerable amount of resources into improving
security systems as result of recent terrorist events that dangerously exposed flaws and …

In this paper, we present a novel approach to 3D face matching that shows high
effectiveness in distinguishing facial differences between distinct individuals from …

We present a novel anthropometric three dimensional (Anthroface 3D) face recognition
algorithm, which is based on a systematically selected set of discriminatory structural …

Face detection is a crucial preliminary in many applications. Most of the approaches to face
detection have focused on the use of two-dimensional images. We present an innovative …

Three-dimensional (3D) face recognition has been extensively investigated in the last two
decades due to its wide range of applications in many areas, such as security and forensics …

This paper proposes a new 3D face recognition approach, Collective Shape Difference
Classifier (CSDC), to meet practical application requirements, ie, high recognition …

We present a methodology for face segmentation and facial landmark detection in range
images. Our goal was to develop an automatic process to be embedded in a face …

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 …
