Images of faces are represented as graphs, labeled with topographical information and local templates. Different poses are represented by different graphs. New graphs of faces are generated by an elastic graph matching procedure comparing the new face with a set of precomputed graphs: the "general face knowledge". The final phase of the matching process can be used to generate composite images of faces and to determine certain features represented in the general face knowledge, such as gender or the presence of glasses or a beard. The graphs can be compared by a similarity function which makes the system efficient in recognizing faces. date: 1995 date_type: published pagerange: 92-97 refereed: TRUE citation: Wiskott, Laurenz and Fellous, Jean-Marc and Krüger, Norbert and von der Malsburg, Christoph (1995) Face Recognition and Gender Determination.
