Abstract :
We discuss the synthesis between the 3D and the 2D data in three-dimensional face recognition. We show how to compensate for the illumination and racial expressions using the 3D facial geometry and present the approach of canonical images, which allows us to incorporate geometric information into standard face recognition approaches.
