Abstract
In this paper, 3D face recognition under isometric deformation (induced by facial expressions) is considered. The main objective is to employ the shape descriptors that are invariant to (isometric) deformations to provide an efficient face recognition algorithm. Two methods of the correspondence are utilized for automatic landmark assignment to the query face. One is based on the conventional iterative closest point (ICP) method and another is based upon the geometrical/topological features of the human face. The shape descriptor is chosen to be the well-known geodesic distance (GD) measure. The recognition task is performed on SHREC08 database for both correspondence methods and the effect of feature (GD) vector size as well as landmark positions on the recognition accuracy were argued.
