This paper addresses the problem of linearly approximating 3D shape from intensities in the context of facial analysis. In other words, given a frontal pose grayscale input face, the direct estimation of its 3D structure is sought through a regression matrix.

The current article aims to overcome this issue by exploiting the 3D structure of faces through cylindrical coordinates, aided by the partial least squares regression. In the context of facial shape analysis, partial least squares builds a set of basis faces, for both grayscale and 3D shape spaces, seeking for maximizing shared covariance between projections of the data along the basis faces.
