Abstract(in English) This papaer discusses face recognition independent of both its pose and illumination. We have proposed the virtual subspace method for face recognition under varying illumination, in which a virtual subspace is constructed from no less than one images by synthesizing a set of virtual images in a variety of lighting conditions. This paper extends the method to cover any face poses. For the purpose, a canonical 3d face model is introduced for pose transformation of any face images to canonical poses. In the registration stage, the virtual subspace is constructed in the canonical eigenspace using the transformed image. In the recognition stage, distances are measured between virtual subspaces and the transformed image. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
