Abstract

This chapter is entitled “Facial Biometrics: From Security to Biomedical Applications”. The aim of this chapter is to bridge the gap between classical facial recognition approaches which are commonly considered for identification or verification i.e. security applications with some extended or adjusted systems related to Biomedical-engineering field.
