Abstract :
This paper presents a novel algorithm for automatic facial feature extraction from 3D facial data. The proposed algorithm is found to be pose and expression invariant. It is successfully tested on 3D face database from the State University of New York, Binghamton, USA. In order to test the algorithm, the images have been regenerated using these extracted features. Bezier surface algorithm has been used for regeneration.
