Description: Intelligent Biometric Techniques in Fingerprint and Face Recognition presents a thorough treatment of established and emerging applications and techniques relevant to this field so rich with opportunity. International experts have contributed their knowledge and experience to bring you the following.

Face Recognition Topics - the specific requirements of face recognition with a review of the available literature; a neural network approach with an overview of attempts to apply neural networks to face recognition tasks; discussion of experimental work using a variant of the Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network; methods for the recognition of human faces; a system for recognizing faces from single images out of a large database based on the new bunch-graph approach; synthesizing 2-D gray-scale facial expressions using RBF neural networks; a model that recognizes emotions not only from facial expressions but also from human situations; and fingerprint recognition topics.
