Abstract

An ongoing research to represent the human body with mathematical models in different methods is described. 3D anthropometric data systems can be used in the product design process and other applications. Neural networks can be used to approximate functions which were proved by rigid mathematical theory. It was analyzed that neural networks can be used to research 3D scanned human body surface.
