Biologically inspired 3D face recognition from surface normals (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Hansen, M. F., & Atkinson, G. (2010, September). Biologically inspired 3D face recognition from surface normals. Paper presented at Procedia Computer Science, Coimbatore, India

A major consideration in state-of-the-art face recognition systems is the amount of data that is required to represent a face. Even a small (64 × 64) photograph of a face has 2 12 dimensions in which a face may sit. When large (> 1MB) photographs of...

An efficient and practical 3D face scanner using near infrared and visible photometric stereo (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Atkinson, G., Hansen, M. F., Smith, M., & Smith, L. (2010, September). An efficient and practical 3D face scanner using near infrared and visible photometric stereo. Paper presented at International Conference and Exhibition on Biometrics Technology, Coimbatore, India

This paper is concerned with the acquisition of model data for automatic 3D face recognition applications. As 3D methods become progressively more popular in face recognition research, the need for fast and accurate data capture has become crucial. T...

Multi-scale depth from slope with weights (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Saracchini, R., Stolfi, J., Leitão, H., Atkinson, G., & Smith, M. (2010, September). Multi-scale depth from slope with weights. Poster presented at British Machine Vision Conference, Aberystwyth, Wales

We describe a robust method to recover the depth coordinate from a normal or slope map of a scene, obtained e.g. through photometric stereo or interferometry. The key feature of our method is the fast solution of the Poisson-like integration equation... Read More about Multi-scale depth from slope with weights.

3D face reconstructions from photometric stereo using near infrared and visible light (2010)
Journal Article
Hansen, M. F., Atkinson, G., Smith, L., & Smith, M. (2010). 3D face reconstructions from photometric stereo using near infrared and visible light. Computer Vision and Image Understanding, 114(8), 942-951. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cviu.2010.03.001

This paper seeks to advance the state-of-the-art in 3D face capture and processing via novel Photometric Stereo (PS) hardware and algorithms. The first contribution is a new high-speed 3D data capture system, which is capable of acquiring four raw im...

Correlating plagiocephaly skull deformations with facial asymmetry using projected pattern 3D imaging (2010)
Book Chapter
Atkinson, G., Smith, M., Smith, L., & Warr, R. (2010). Correlating plagiocephaly skull deformations with facial asymmetry using projected pattern 3D imaging. In A. Hierlemann (Ed.), Proceedings of the 7th IASTED International Conference: Biomedical Engineering (BioMED 2010) February 17-19, 2010 Innsbruck, Austria (249-256). Acta Press

In this paper, we present a statistical study into skull deformations caused by positional plagiocephaly. We also consider the hardware used for the assessment of both severity and treatment. State-of-the-art external imaging hardware is employed to... Read More about Correlating plagiocephaly skull deformations with facial asymmetry using projected pattern 3D imaging.
