Automatic 3D Face Recognition And Modeling From 2D Images: Research Works

Face recognition and modeling has been an active research area over last 35 years. This research spans several disciplines such as image processing, pattern recognition, computer vision, and neural networks. It has been studied by scientists from different areas of psychophysical sciences and those from different areas of computer sciences. Psychologists and neuroscientists mainly deal with the human perception part of the topic, whereas engineers studying on machine recognition of human faces deal with the computational aspects of face recognition. Face recognition has applications mainly in the fields of biometrics, access control, law enforcement, and security and surveillance systems.
