A method of facial recognition has been developed by the application of a statistical method, standard deviations or standard errors versus sample number plots, to differentiate the degree of reproducibilities of various measurements between facial anthropological landmarks in individual ethnic groups. Reproducible measurements between facial anthropological landmarks in a particular ethnic group mean they are common features shared by individuals of that ethnic group. Non-reproducible measurements are unique features of each individual in that ethnic group which may be used for individual facial recognition purposes. Such methodology may be computerized for automatic facial recognition. A large amount of data of each ethnic group is needed for facial recognition. In turn, the development of databases of each ethnic group will result in a large amount of data of human faces.
