  • Achieved an average landmarking error of 1.9 mm, outperforming active shape models (2.3 mm).
  • Demonstrated comparable performance to manual landmarking for certain facial landmarks in heritability studies.
  • Algorithm training takes 30 minutes for datasets of any size.

    • Conclusions:

    • The proposed 2D Gabor wavelet-based method provides a fast, robust, and accurate solution for automatic 3D facial landmarking.
    • This approach has significant potential for applications in biometrics, medical imaging, and facial analysis.
