Rigid or non-rigid or both?

Both rigid and non-rigid transformation need to be considered in face recognition.

According to Tony Jebara "Additionally, our detection and recognition scheme must also be capable of tolerating variations in the faces themselves. The human face is not a unique rigid object. There are billions of different faces and each of them can assume a variety of deformations. Inter-personal variations can be due to race, identity, or genetics while intra-personal variations can be due to deformations, expression, aging, facial hair, cosmetics and facial paraphernalia. "
