From few to many: illumination cone models for face recognition under variable lighting and pose

TL;DR: A generative appearance-based method for recognizing human faces under variation in lighting and viewpoint that exploits the fact that the set of images of an object in fixed pose but under all possible illumination conditions, is a convex cone in the space of images.

Human and machine recognition of faces: a survey

TL;DR: A critical survey of existing literature on human and machine recognition of faces is presented, followed by a brief overview of the literature on face recognition in the psychophysics community and a detailed overview of move than 20 years of research done in the engineering community.

Automatic recognition and analysis of human faces and facial expressions: a survey

TL;DR: The capability of the human visual system with respect to face identification, analysis of facial expressions, and classification based on physical features of the face are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Survey of Face Recognition Techniques

TL;DR: A discussion outlining the incentive for using face recognition, the applications of this technology, and some of the difficulties plaguing current systems with regard to this task has been provided.

What's the Difference between Men and Women? Evidence from Facial Measurement:

TL;DR: The difficulty of deriving a reliable function to distinguish between the sexes is discussed with reference to the development of automatic face-processing programs in machine vision, and it is argued that such systems will need to incorporate an understanding of the stimuli if they are to be effective.

An Introduction to Multivariate Statistical Analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the distribution of the Mean Vector and the Covariance Matrix and the Generalized T2-Statistic is analyzed. But the distribution is not shown to be independent of sets of Variates.

The Life, Letters and Labours of Francis Galton

Karl Pearson
TL;DR: The second part of Volume 3 includes records of Galton's travels and occupations, and recollections of friends and family as discussed by the authors and Pearson himself was later appointed the first Galton professor of eugenics at University College London.

Automatic recognition of human face profiles

TL;DR: The aim of this preliminary profile-recognition study was to develop algorithms for defining unique individual description vectors from manually entered profile traces, which showed that unique individual differentation was clearly obtaincd for each member of the population.
