Robust 3D Face Recognition

Janez Križaj, Vitomir Štruc, Simon Dobrišek: Robust 3D Face Recognition. In: Electrotechnical Review, 79 (1-2), pp. 1-6, 2012.

Abstract

Face recognition in uncontrolled environments is hindered by variations in illumination, pose, expression and occlusions of faces. Many practical face-recognition systems are affected by these variations. One way to increase the robustness to illumination and pose variations is to use 3D facial images. In this paper 3D face-recognition systems are presented. Their structure and operation are described. The robustness of such systems to variations in uncontrolled environments is emphasized. We present some preliminary results of a system developed in our laboratory.
