AFP3DFace AFP3DFace – UTIK / EUMEDGRID-Support Automatic extraction of Feature Points from a 3D face Domain Computer Science and Mathematics / Simulation and modeling - Digital image processing AFP3DFace is a new tool to extract automatically the feature points from a 3D face. The input of the system is a mesh composed by a cloud of points and surfaces and the output is a set of points called features points. This set of points serves to make an automatic facial animation based on MPEG-4 standards. AFP3D Face computes the feature points from the mesh independently of its dimensions and pose.

Summary and Conclusions The EUMEDGRID-Support Application portal is the entry point to provide support both to users and their applications The EUMEDGRID-Support Application registry helps spreading the visibility and importance of the applications supported by the project Well defined procedures have been put in place to get new applications supported and let users access the EUMEDGRID Infrastructure. Thanks to the Cairo school three new Egyptian sites have been installed and three parallel applications have been ported to Grid. This is a very good starting point towards the creation of an Egyptian Grid Infrastructure Cairo, EPIKH Workshop, 04.11.2010
