A Curvelet-based approach for textured 3D face recognition

作者:

Highlights:

• Identifying distinctive keypoints on textured 3D face surfaces rich with features.

• These keypoints are identified in the Curvelet domain across mid-frequency bands.

• The repeatability of these keypoints is high in both neutral and nonneutral faces.

• Building local surface descriptors around the keypoints in the Curvelet domain.

• Reported results show superior performance on three datasets, namely FRGC, BU-3DFE and Bosphorus, compared to prior art.
