Abstract. This paper presents a method to decompose a field of surface normals (needle-map). A diffusion process is used to model the flow of height information induced by a fi...
This paper investigates the use of range images of faces for recognizing people. 3D scans of faces lead to range images that are linearly projected to low-dimensional subspaces fo...
One possible solution for pose- and illuminationinvariant face recognition is to employ appearancebased approaches, which rely greatly on correct facial textures. However, existin...

Although 2D-based face recognition methods have made great progress in the past decades, there are also some unsolved problems such as PIE. Recently, more and more researchers hav...
Abstract. We investigate a number of approaches to pose invariant face recognition. Basically, the methods involve three sequential functions for capturing nonlinear manifolds of f...
