  text: "The problem of isometry-invariant representation and comparison of surfaces
    is of cardinal importance in pattern recognition applications dealing with deformable
    objects. Particularly, in three-dimensional face recognition treating facial expressions
    as isometries of the facial surface allows to perform robust recognition insensitive
    to expressions.\r\nIsometry-invariant representation of surfaces can be constructed
    by isometrically embedding them into some convenient space, and carrying out the
    comparison in that space. Presented here is a discussion on isometric embedding
    into S3, which appears to be superior over the previously used Euclidean space
    in sense of the representation accuracy."
