Download or read book 3d Face Registration written by Nese Alyüz and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2009-11 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three dimensional (3D) face recognition is a frequently used biometric and its performance is dependent on registration. Registration aligns two faces and makes a comparison possible between the two surfaces. In the literature, best results have been achieved by a one-to-all approach, where a test face is aligned to each gallery face separately. To overcome the computational bottleneck of this approach, we examine registration based on an Average Face Model (AFM). To improve the registration, we propose to group faces and register with category-specific AFMs. We see that gender and morphology classes exist, when faces are categorized with the clustering approach. As another factor causing diversity in the face space, we explore expression variations. To reduce the negative effect of expressions in registration, we divide the facial surface into logical segments, and for each segment we create an Average Region Model (ARM). Registering via each ARM separately, we examine regional recognition performance. Even though some regions are less affected by expression variations, no single region is sufficient by itself and the use of all regions is beneficial.

Book Representations and Techniques for 3D Object Recognition and Scene Interpretation

Download or read book Representations and Techniques for 3D Object Recognition and Scene Interpretation written by Derek Hoiem and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the grand challenges of artificial intelligence is to enable computers to interpret 3D scenes and objects from imagery. This book organizes and introduces major concepts in 3D scene and object representation and inference from still images, with a focus on recent efforts to fuse models of geometry and perspective with statistical machine learning. The book is organized into three sections: (1) Interpretation of Physical Space; (2) Recognition of 3D Objects; and (3) Integrated 3D Scene Interpretation. The first discusses representations of spatial layout and techniques to interpret physical scenes from images. The second section introduces representations for 3D object categories that account for the intrinsically 3D nature of objects and provide robustness to change in viewpoints. The third section discusses strategies to unite inference of scene geometry and object pose and identity into a coherent scene interpretation. Each section broadly surveys important ideas from cognitive science and artificial intelligence research, organizes and discusses key concepts and techniques from recent work in computer vision, and describes a few sample approaches in detail. Newcomers to computer vision will benefit from introductions to basic concepts, such as single-view geometry and image classification, while experts and novices alike may find inspiration from the book's organization and discussion of the most recent ideas in 3D scene understanding and 3D object recognition. Specific topics include: mathematics of perspective geometry; visual elements of the physical scene, structural 3D scene representations; techniques and features for image and region categorization; historical perspective, computational models, and datasets and machine learning techniques for 3D object recognition; inferences of geometrical attributes of objects, such as size and pose; and probabilistic and feature-passing approaches for contextual reasoning about 3D objects and scenes. Table of Contents: Background on 3D Scene Models / Single-view Geometry / Modeling the Physical Scene / Categorizing Images and Regions / Examples of 3D Scene Interpretation / Background on 3D Recognition / Modeling 3D Objects / Recognizing and Understanding 3D Objects / Examples of 2D 1/2 Layout Models / Reasoning about Objects and Scenes / Cascades of Classifiers / Conclusion and Future Directions

Download or read book 3D Shape Analysis written by Hamid Laga and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-01-07 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth description of the state-of-the-art of 3D shape analysis techniques and their applications This book discusses the different topics that come under the title of "3D shape analysis". It covers the theoretical foundations and the major solutions that have been presented in the literature. It also establishes links between solutions proposed by different communities that studied 3D shape, such as mathematics and statistics, medical imaging, computer vision, and computer graphics. The first part of 3D Shape Analysis: Fundamentals, Theory, and Applications provides a review of the background concepts such as methods for the acquisition and representation of 3D geometries, and the fundamentals of geometry and topology. It specifically covers stereo matching, structured light, and intrinsic vs. extrinsic properties of shape. Parts 2 and 3 present a range of mathematical and algorithmic tools (which are used for e.g., global descriptors, keypoint detectors, local feature descriptors, and algorithms) that are commonly used for the detection, registration, recognition, classification, and retrieval of 3D objects. Both also place strong emphasis on recent techniques motivated by the spread of commodity devices for 3D acquisition. Part 4 demonstrates the use of these techniques in a selection of 3D shape analysis applications. It covers 3D face recognition, object recognition in 3D scenes, and 3D shape retrieval. It also discusses examples of semantic applications and cross domain 3D retrieval, i.e. how to retrieve 3D models using various types of modalities, e.g. sketches and/or images. The book concludes with a summary of the main ideas and discussions of the future trends. 3D Shape Analysis: Fundamentals, Theory, and Applications is an excellent reference for graduate students, researchers, and professionals in different fields of mathematics, computer science, and engineering. It is also ideal for courses in computer vision and computer graphics, as well as for those seeking 3D industrial/commercial solutions.

Book 3D Face Recognition from Shape Information Based on 3D Surface Registration

Download or read book 3D Face Recognition from Shape Information Based on 3D Surface Registration written by Mustafa Okan İrfanoğlu and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Face recognition techniques have shown a great improvement in the last decades. Although important advances have been realized on image based 2D face recognition algorithms, there still remains some challenges to deal with like illumination, pose and expression variations. A convenient way to deal with these problems would be to utilize 3D information where the shape information of faces is directly available. In this work, we propose two different methods to represent shape information of human faces to be used in a three dimensional face recognition system. The first one describes the faces with implicit polynomials and their invariants. The second approach, called the Point Set Distance method, is based on the registration of facial surfaces and establishment of point-to-point dense correspondence. The recognition performances of the algorithms are compared with other shape descriptors and our results show that the surface description method based on registration produces yields classification results as good as 98.9 per cent on noise--free database consisting of 30 people and 93 per cent on a noisy database of 106 people. The preprocessing and feature extraction steps are performed faster than the existing methods and the outputs of the registration process are ready to be used for statistical purposes such as Point Distribution Models or other shape variation analysis. A feature selection method is also implemented to investigate the importance of different facial regions in the human 3D face recognition process. Results have shown that the upper part of the faces plays a crucial role.
