When two sets are differently sized, the Hausdorff distance can be computed
between them, even if the cardinality of one set is infinite. Different versions of this
distance have been proposed and employed for face verification, among which the
modified Hausdorff distance is the most famous. The important point to be noted is that,
among the most commonly used similarity measures, the Hausdorff distance is the only
one that has been widely applied to 3D data.
