So far, Local Binary Patterns have been applied to face recognition based on 2D illumination images and near infrared images, showing good robustness, discriminative ability and computational efficiency. In this paper, this method is extended to 3D face images. We investigate the influence of several parameters of this method and show improvements in the recognition rates, proving that this new method is a very promising approach for 3D face recognition.enbiometric3D face recognitionpattern recognition006conference paper
