Figure 2. Facial characteristic points model<br />

The computation <strong>of</strong> the eigenvectors was done <strong>of</strong>fline as a preliminary step <strong>of</strong> the<br />

process. For each input image, the first processing stage extracts the image data<br />

according to the three areas. Each data image is projected through the eigenvectors and<br />

the pattern with the minimum error is searched.<br />

The label <strong>of</strong> the extracted pattern is then fed to the quantification function for obtaining<br />

the characteristic output value <strong>of</strong> each image area. Each value is further set as evidence in<br />

the probabilistic BBN.<br />
