3D Face Recognition in the Presence of Expression: A Guidance-Based Constraint Deformation Approach
Abstract
Three-dimensional human face recognition in the presence of expression is a big challenge, since the shape distortion caused by facial expression greatly weakens the rigid matching. This paper proposes a guidance-based constraint deformation(GCD) model to cope with the shape distortion by expression. The basic idea is that, the face model with non-neutral expression is deformed toward its neutral one under certain constraint so that the distortion is reduced while inter-class discriminative information is preserved. The GCD model exploits the neutral 3D face shape to guide the deformation, meanwhile applies a rigid constraint on it. Both steps are smoothly unified in the Poisson equation framework. The GCD approach only needs one neutral model for each person in the gallery. The experimental results, carried out on the large 3D face databases-FRGC v2.0, demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms ICP method for both identification and authentication mode. It shows the GCD model is promising for coping with the shape distortion in 3D face recognition.
