| Abstract |
Model-based face analysis is a general paradigm with applications that include face recognition, expression recognition, lipreading, head pose estimation, and gaze estimation. A face model is first constructed from a collection of training data, either 2D images or 3D range scans. The face model is then fit to the input image(s) and the model parameters used in whatever the application is. Most existing face models can be classified as either 2D (e.g. Active Appearance Models) or 3D (e.g. Morphable Models.) In this paper we compare 2D and 3D face models along four axes: (1) representational power, (2) construction, (3) real-time fitting, and (4) self occlusion reasoning. For each axis in turn, we outline the differences that result from using a 2D or a 3D face model.
