We present a high-resolution 3D facial dataset focused on East Asian participants, designed to provide consistent topology and expression diversity. The dataset includes 98 individuals (18–30 years) and captures neutral faces, six basic emotions, and nine Facial Action Coding System (FACS)-based Action Units (AUs). Each 3D mesh is acquired under a standardized protocol. Synchronized multi-view RGB images are available only for a subset of participants who provided additional consent. To ensure structural consistency across subjects and expressions, we developed a processing pipeline combining FLAME-based expression fitting with Edge-Constrained Non-rigid Iterative Closest Point (Edge-NICP). The resulting meshes share unified topology and vertex correspondence, enabling direct point-to-point comparisons across conditions. Rich annotations, including facial landmarks, verified AU labels, and vertex-level deformation fields, accompany the dataset. Together, these resources may facilitate research in computer graphics, human–computer interaction, and cross-modal studies that benefit from expression-rich, topology-standardized 3D face data.
