Abstract

We present a system for pose and illumination invariant face recognition that combines two recent advances in the computer vision field: 3D morphable models and component-based recognition. A 3D morphable model is used to compute 3D face models from three input images of each subject in the training database. The 3D models are rendered under varying pose and illumination conditions to build a large set of synthetic images. These images are then used for training a component-based face recognition system. The face recognition module is preceded by a fast hierarchical face detector resulting in a system that can detect and identify faces in video images at about 4 Hz. The system achieved a recognition rate of 88% on a database of 2000 real images of ten people, which is significantly better than a comparable global face recognition system. The results clearly show the potential of the combination of morphable models and component-based recognition towards pose and illumination invariant face recognition.
