-In this paper, 3D face recognition model is designed by using Polynomial based RBFNN(Radial Basis Function Neural Network) and PNN(Polynomial Neural Network). Also recognition rate is performed by this model. In existing 2D face recognition model, the degradation of recognition rate may occur in external environments such as face features using a brightness of the video. So 3D face recognition is performed by using 3D scanner for improving disadvantage of 2D face recognition. In the preprocessing part, obtained 3D face images for the variation of each pose are changed as front image by using pose compensation. The depth data of face image shape is extracted by using Multiple point signature. And whole area of face depth information is obtained by using the tip of a nose as a reference point. Parameter optimization is carried out with the aid of both ABC(Artificial Bee Colony) and PSO(Particle Swarm Optimization) for effective training and recognition. Experimental data for face recognition is built up by the face images of students and researchers in IC&CI Lab of Suwon University. By using the images of 3D face extracted in IC&CI Lab. the performance of 3D face recognition is evaluated and compared according to two types of models as well as point signature method based on two kinds of depth data information.

-In this paper, we design a hybrid system for recognition and tracking realized with the aid of polynomial based RBFNNs pattern classifier and particle filter. The RBFNN classifier is built by learning the training data for diverse pose images. The optimized parameters of RBFNN classifier are obtained by Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO). Testing data for pose image is used as a face image obtained under real situation, where the face image is detected by AdaBoost algorithm. In order to improve the recognition performance for a detected image, pose estimation as preprocessing step is carried out before the face recognition step. PCA is used for pose estimation, the pose of detected image is assigned for the built pose by considering the featured difference between the previously built pose image and the newly detected image. The recognition of detected image is performed through polynomial based RBFNN pattern classifier, and if the detected image is equal to target for tracking, the target will be traced by particle filter in real time. Moreover, when tracking is failed by PF, Adaboost algorithm detects facial area again, and the procedures of both the pose estimation and the image recognition are repeated as mentioned above. Finally, experimental results are compared and analyzed by using Honda/UCSD data known as benchmark DB.
