Individual identification is one of the research hotspots in the practice of forensic science， and the judgment is usually built on the comparison of the unique biological characteristics of the individual， such as fingerprints， iris and DNA. With the dramatic increase in the number of cases related to video image investigations， there is an increasing need for the technology to identify individuals based on the macroscopic comparison of facial appearance biometrics. At present， with the introduction of computer three-dimensional （3D） modeling and 3D superimposition comparison technology， considerable progress has been made in individual identification methods based on macroscopic comparison of facial appearance biometrics. This paper reviews individual facial appearance biometric methods based on macroscopical comparison, comprehensively analyzes the advantages and limitations of different methods, and puts forward recommendations and prospects for subsequent research.
