26. The method of claim 1 , wherein: said at least one model property comprises at least one of texture, shape, illumination, and configuration.
1. A method, comprising: establishing at least one substantially three dimensional learning model of at least one learning subject; establishing at least one substantially three dimensional gallery model for at least one gallery subject; establishing at least one substantially three dimensional query model of a query subject; determining a transform of at least one parent gallery model from among said at least one gallery model in combination with at least one active learning model from among said at least one learning model so as to yield at least one transformed gallery model, wherein said transformed gallery model approaches correspondence with at least one of said at least one query model in at least one model property as compared with said parent gallery model; applying said transform; and comparing at least one substantially two dimensional transformed gallery image at least substantially corresponding with said at least one transformed gallery model against at least one substantially two dimensional query image at least substantially corresponding with said at least one query model, so as to determine whether said at least one query subject is said at least one gallery subject.
