Abstract

It is essential to recognize that faulty reasoning and & faulty logic denote the same principle, both indicating a deficiency in reasoning. The term faulty denotes the presence of errors or imperfections, while logic pertains to sound reasoning or judgment. Faulty logic can also be seen as a rhetorical technique. This paper demonstrates how incorrect or misleading answers can ultimately guide us toward accurate conclusions. By honing the ability to identify faulty logic, individuals can become more discerning consumers of both enlightenment and outcome. When an argument or reasoning is described as faulty, it suggests that the argument is flawed or incorrect, often due to a failure in logical reasoning.

Keywords: 3D face recognition, DWT, principal mean curvature, feature extraction, matching
