Abstract
This paper shows that Hidden Markov models (HMMs) can be effectively applied to 3D face data. The examined HMM techniques are shown to be superior to a previously examined Gaussian mixture model (GMM) technique. Experiments conducted on the Face Recognition Grand Challenge database show that the Equal Error Rate can be reduced from 0.88% for the GMM technique to 0.36% for the best HMM approach.
