Facial hacking: the twisted logic of electro-facial choreography
… addresses the development of a computational facial language that enables systematic exploration of the external controlled human face with the aim to identify fundamental electro-facial choreographic patterns. Rewiring the human face to an external digital control system, has sparked a …

Facial fatness as a complicating factor in facial reconstruction
… a significant proportion of the variation in facial tissue thicknesses comes from anatomical differences between populations, we do not know how much of normal variation is caused by including the full range of individual obesity or slimness. Current population standard soft tissue thickness …

Facial Identification of Children: A Test of Automated Facial Recognition and Manual Facial Comparison Techniques on Juvenile Face Images
The accurate identification of children from facial photographs could provide a great attribute in the fight against child sexual exploitation, and may also aid in the detection of missing juveniles where comparative material is available. The European Commission is actively pursuing a global …

THREE-DIMENSIONAL FACIAL ANTHROPOMETRY
… and research centers. Methods of capturing 3D facial surface may obtain more imaging information providing a reliable and fast analysis. Stereophotogrammetry is a promising method of soft-tissue evaluation that allows reliable analysis of craniofacial deformities, providing fundamental …

Automatic facial age estimation
… estimating human ages, by processing input facial images, has generally been found to be poor. On other hand, various real world applications, often relating to safety and security, depend on an accurate estimate of a person’s age. In such situations, Face Image based Automatic Age …

Automatic facial expression analysis
… of our emotionally expressive behaviour. We use facial expressions to display our emotional states and to manage our interactions. Furthermore, we express and read emotions in faces effortlessly. However, automatic understanding of facial expressions is a very difficult task computationally, …

Automatic facial action analysis
This thesis describes a research system called aide: automated intelligent design expert that creates graphics from data. It assists users of data who wish to design graphics by combining artificial intelligence techniques with current automated design software paradigms. The work extends previous …

The Development of the Facial Muscles and the Facial Nerve in Human Embryos
… of the muscles in man supplied by the facial or seventh cranial nerve together with the morphogenesis of the extramedullary part of the nerve. The muscles include not only those of facial expression but also the nonmimetic muscles. The development of the facial nerve encompasses the …

Facial responses to facial expressions of emotion in dangerous and severe personality disorder
When people view facial expressions of emotion they tend to mimic or mirror the expression. According to Leventhal's perceptual-motor theory of emotion, this response occurs when innate central motor programmes are activated. There is evidence that individuals with psychopathic traits have impaired …

Facial feature representation and recognition
Facial expression provides an important behavioral measure for studies of emotion, cognitive processes, and social interaction. Facial expression representation and recognition have become a promising research area during recent years. Its applications include human-computer interfaces, human …

Cognitive representation of facial asymmetry
… displays mild asymmetry, with measurements of facial structure differing from left to right of the meridian by an average of three percent. Presently this source of variation is of theoretical interest primarily to researchers studying the perception of beauty, but a very limited amount of …

Facial creases in human identification
… Phases. The aim of each phase is to identify facial creases useful in human identification.In Phase 1, creases were analysed on peri- and post-embalmed cadavers in CAHID to establish whether or not there is any change to crease with facial bloating. Embalming was chosen to simulate effects …

Image-based facial expression recognition
This work deals with facial expression recognition from various face representations. The key contributions of the work are both empirical and theoretical. In empirical work, we first design and successfully test a framework for near-frontal expression recognition. Then we do a significance …

Facial Expression Intelligence Scale (FEIS): Recognizing and Interpreting Facial Expressions and Implications for Consumer Behavior
… the context of the situation to form judgments. Facial expressions serve as pieces of information we use to understand what another person is thinking, saying, or feeling. While there is strong support for the universality of emotion recognition, the ability to identify and interpret facial …

A Statistical Approach to Facial Identification
… the development of statistical methods for facial identification. The objective is to provide a technique which can provide answers based on probabilities to the question of whether two images of a face are from the same person or whether there could be two different people whose facial …
