Neuronal theories and technical systems for face recognition

I present various systems for the recognition of human faces. They consist of three steps: feature extraction, solving the correspondence problem, and the actual comparison with stored faces. Two of them are implemented in the Dynamic Link Architecture and are, therefore, close to biological hardware, the others are more technical in nature but also have some biological plausibility. At the end, I will brie y discuss the coherence with the results of psychophysical experiments on human face recognition.
