Extending Hough Transform to a Points’ Cloud for 3D-Face Nose-Tip Detection

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 5227))

Abstract

This paper describes an extension of Generalized Hough Transform (GHT) to 3D point cloud for biometric applications. We focus on the possibility to applying this new GHT on a dataset representing point clouds of 3DFaces in order to obtain a nose-tip detection system.
