Occlusion Based on FMM for Matching

Rather than explore GMDS as a self-contained solution for the computation of face-to-face similarity, FMM is being used in a level sets-esque approach where we expand the surface and then do matching hinged on Euclidean measurements, carried out upon the resultant sub-surface. Based on the overnight experiment which yielded the ROC curve, there seems to be potential here for a measure at least complementary to GMDS. This was a rather shallow implementation designed to just test the waters, so a better experimental design and algorithm will now be put in place to see how much performance can be improved. This current trick is a better substitute/fallback for GMDS than before.
