3D Face Modeling, Analysis and Recognition presents
methodologies for analyzing shapes of facial surfaces, develops
computational tools for analyzing 3D face data, and illustrates
them using state-of-the-art applications. The methodologies chosen
are based on efficient representations, metrics, comparisons, and
classifications of features that are especially relevant in the
context of 3D measurements of human faces. These frameworks have a
long-term utility in face analysis, taking into account the
anticipated improvements in data collection, data storage,
processing speeds, and application scenarios expected as the
discipline develops further.

The book covers face acquisition through 3D scanners and 3D face
pre-processing, before examining the three main approaches for 3D
facial surface analysis and recognition: facial curves; facial
surface features; and 3D morphable models. Whilst the focus of
these chapters is fundamentals and methodologies, the algorithms
provided are tested on facial biometric data, thereby continually
showing how the methods can be applied.

Key features:

* Explores the underlying mathematics and will apply these
mathematical techniques to 3D face analysis and recognition

* Provides coverage of a wide range of applications including
biometrics, forensic applications, facial expression analysis, and
model fitting to 2D images

* Contains numerous exercises and algorithms throughout the
book
