3D data is a valuable asset the computer vision filed as it provides rich information about the full geometry of sensed objects and scenes. Recently, with the availability of both large 3D datasets and computational power, it is today possible to consider applying deep learning to learn specific tasks on 3D data such as segmentation, recognition and correspondence. Depending on the considered 3D data representation, different challenges may be foreseen in using existent deep learning architectures. In this work, we provide a comprehensive overview about various 3D data representations highlighting the difference between Euclidean and non-Euclidean ones. We also discuss how Deep Learning methods are applied on each representation, analyzing the challenges to overcome.Concepts: • General and references → Surveys and overviews; • Computing methodologies → 3D Deep Learning; 3D computer vision applications; 3D data representations;

In this letter, we investigate the permanence issue of electroencephalographic (EEG) signals, elicited by visual stimuli, for biometric recognition purposes. Specifically, we evaluate the discriminative capabilities of generic visually-evoked potentials (VEPs) and of visual event-related potentials (ERPs) associated to specific cognitive tasks. Furthermore, we analyze the permanence issue of the considered EEG traits by verifying the stability across time of the achievable recognition rates. Experimental tests performed on a longitudinal database, comprising EEG data taken from 50 subjects during 3 different sessions, give evidence of the presence of repeatable discriminative characteristics in the individuals' EEG activity
