3D FACE RECOGNITION FROM RANGE IMAGES BASED ON CURVATURE ANALYSIS

In this paper, we present a novel approach for three-dimensional face recognition by extracting the curvature maps from range images. There are four types of curvature maps: Gaussian, Mean, Maximum and Minimum curvature maps. These curvature maps are used as a feature for 3D face recognition purpose...
