3D face recognition by shadow moiré

Abstract This research applies the shadow moire method to recognize a 3D face. The contour information of a face is stored in a database by a hierarchical structure from outer to inner contours, which contains the 3D features of the face. The contour similarity rate can be detected by the image moment invariant method. This research extends traditional two-dimensional face recognition into three-dimensional analysis to enhance the detection rate of a face.
