Description Facial analysis and comparison form a substantial part of many research areas, such as security, medicine or psychology. 3D representations of facial images carry a lot of information beneficial to the researchers. However, comparing 3D shapes is not an easy task. Suitable visual representation of the data can help and simplify the work immensely. In this paper I therefore focus on visualization techniques for 3D facial data, specifically for its analysis and comparison. I present three different visualization methods suitable for pairwise comparison as well as for the analysis of large datasets. My methods target the typical tasks performed by the domain experts when conducting their research. The proposed visualizations were evaluated by experts working in the facial analysis area.
