A Discriminant Analysis Method for Face Recognition in Heteroscedastic Distributions
Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is a popular method in pattern recognition and is equivalent to Bayesian method when the sample distributions of different classes are obey to t...

3D Signatures for Fast 3D Face Recognition
We propose a vector representation (called a 3D signature) for 3D face shape in biometrics applications. Elements of the vector correspond to fixed surface points in a face-centere...

Image Averaging for Improved Iris Recognition
We take advantage of the temporal continuity in an iris video to improve matching performance using signal-level fusion. From multiple frames of an iris video, we create a single a...
