Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a method for acquiring 3D feature information of a human face according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The method for acquiring the 3D characteristic information of the human face comprises the following steps:
s101: and acquiring an RGBD face image.
Specifically, the RGBD face image includes color information (RGB) and Depth information (Depth) of a face, and the RGBD face image may be obtained by a Kinect sensor. The RGBD face image is specifically an image set, and includes a plurality of RGBD images of a plurality of angles like a person.
S102: and collecting the characteristic points of the human face through the RGBD human face image.
In step S102, after acquiring the RGBD face image, collecting feature points on the RGBD face image by collecting face elements, where the face elements include: one or more of eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, cheeks, and chin.
The feature points may be obtained by various methods, for example, by manually marking feature points of five sense organs such as eyes and a nose, cheeks, a mandible, edges thereof, and the like of the human face, or by determining the feature points of the human face by a human face feature point marking method compatible with RGB (2D).
For example, the method for locating the key feature points of the human face comprises the following steps: selecting 9 characteristic points of the human face, wherein the distribution of the characteristic points has angle invariance and is respectively 2 eyeball central points, 4 eye corner points, the middle points of two nostrils and 2 mouth corner points. On the basis of the above-mentioned identification method, the organ characteristics of human face and extended positions of other characteristic points can be easily obtained, and can be used for further identification algorithm.
When the human face features are extracted, because local edge information cannot be effectively organized, the traditional edge detection operator cannot reliably extract the features of the human face (the outlines of eyes or mouth), but from the human visual characteristics, the features of edges and angular points are fully utilized to position the key feature points of the human face, so that the reliability of the human face feature extraction is greatly improved.
Wherein a Susan (Small value Collection optimizing Nucleus) operator is selected for extracting edge and corner features of the local area. According to the characteristics of the Susan operator, the method can be used for detecting edges and extracting corners. Therefore, compared with edge detection operators such as Sobel and Canny, the Susan operator is more suitable for extracting features such as human faces, eyes and mouths and the like, and especially for automatically positioning eye corner points and mouth corner points.
The following is an introduction to the Susan operator:
traversing the image by using a circular template, if the difference between the gray value of any other pixel in the template and the gray value of the pixel (kernel) in the center of the template is less than a certain threshold, the pixel is considered to have the same (or similar) gray value with the kernel, and the region composed of pixels meeting the condition is called a kernel value similarity region (USAN). Associating each pixel in the image with a local area having similar gray values is the basis of the SUSAN criterion.
During detection, a circular template is used for scanning the whole image, the gray values of each pixel and the central pixel in the template are compared, and a threshold value is given to judge whether the pixel belongs to a USAN region, wherein the following formula is as follows:
in the formula, c (r, r)0) Is the discriminant function of pixels in the template that belong to the USAN region, I (r)0) Is the gray value of the center pixel (kernel) of the template, i (r) is the gray value of any other pixel in the template, and t is the gray difference threshold. Which affects the number of detected corner points. t is reduced and more subtle changes in the image are obtained, giving a relatively large number of detections. The threshold t must be determined based on factors such as the contrast and noise of the image. The USAN region size at a point in the image can be represented by the following equation:
wherein g is a geometric threshold, which affects the shape of the detected corner points, and the smaller g is, the sharper the detected corner points are. (1) the determination threshold g for t, g determines the maximum value of the USAN region for the output corner, i.e. a point is determined as a corner as long as the pixels in the image have a USAN region smaller than g. The size of g not only determines how many corners can be extracted from the image, but also, as previously mentioned, determines how sharp the corner is detected. So g can take a constant value once the quality (sharpness) of the desired corner point is determined. The threshold t represents the minimum contrast of the corner points that can be detected and is also the maximum tolerance for negligible noise. It mainly determines the number of features that can be extracted, the smaller t, the more features that can be extracted from an image with lower contrast, and the more features that are extracted. Therefore, for images of different contrast and noise conditions, different values of t should be taken. The SUSAN operator has the outstanding advantages of insensitivity to local noise and strong noise immunity. This is because it does not rely on the results of earlier image segmentation and avoids gradient calculations, and in addition, the USAN region is accumulated from pixels in the template with similar gray values as the central pixel of the template, which is in fact an integration process that has a good suppression of gaussian noise.
The final stage of the SUSAN two-dimensional feature detection is to find the local maximum of the initial corner response, i.e. non-maximum suppression processing, to obtain the final corner position. As the name implies, the non-maximum suppression is in the local area, if the initial response of the central pixel is the maximum in this area, its value is retained, otherwise, it is deleted, so that the maximum in the local area is obtained.
(1) Automatic positioning of the eyeball and the canthus. In the automatic positioning process of the eyeballs and the canthus, firstly, a normalized template matching method is adopted to initially position the human face. The approximate area of the face is determined in the whole face image. The general human eye positioning algorithm positions according to the valley point property of the eyes, and here, a method of combining the valley point search and the direction projection and the symmetry of the eyeballs is adopted, and the accuracy of the eye positioning can be improved by utilizing the correlation between the two eyes. Integral projection of a gradient map is carried out on the upper left part and the upper right part of the face area, a histogram of the integral projection is normalized, the approximate position of the eyes in the y direction is determined according to valley points of horizontal projection, then x is changed in a large range, valley points in the area are searched, and the detected points are used as eyeball center points of two eyes.
On the basis of obtaining the positions of two eyeballs, processing an eye region, firstly determining a threshold value by adopting a self-adaptive binarization method to obtain an automatic binarization image of the eye region, and then combining with a Susan operator, and accurately positioning inner and outer eye angular points in the eye region by utilizing an algorithm of edge and angular point detection.
The edge image of the eye region obtained by the algorithm is subjected to corner point extraction on the edge curve in the image on the basis, so that accurate positions of the inner and outer eye corner points of the two eyes can be obtained.
(2) Automatic positioning of nose area feature points. And determining the key characteristic point of the nose area of the human face as the midpoint of the central connecting line of the two nostrils, namely the center point of the nose lip. The position of the central point of the nose lip of the human face is relatively stable, and the central point of the nose lip of the human face can also play a role of a reference point when the normalization preprocessing is carried out on the human face image.
And determining the positions of the two nostrils by adopting a regional gray scale integral projection method based on the found positions of the two eyeballs.
Firstly, strip-shaped areas with the width of pupils of two eyes are intercepted, integral projection in the Y direction is carried out, and then a projection curve is analyzed. It can be seen that, searching downwards from the Y coordinate height of the eyeball position along the projection curve, finding out the position of the first valley point (by adjusting and selecting a proper peak-valley delta value, neglecting the burr influence possibly generated by the face scar or glasses and the like in the middle), and using the valley point as the Y coordinate reference point of the nostril position; in the second step, an area with the X coordinate of two eyeballs as the width and delta pixels above and below the Y coordinate of the nostrils (for example, delta is selected to be [ nostril Y coordinate-eyeball Y coordinate ] × 0.06) as the height is selected for X-direction integral projection, then a projection curve is analyzed, the X coordinate of the midpoint of the pupils of the two eyes is used as a central point, searching is respectively carried out towards the left side and the right side, and the first valley point is found to be the X coordinate of the central point of the left nostril and the right nostril. And calculating the middle points of the two nostrils to be used as the middle points of the nose and the lip, obtaining the accurate position of the middle point of the nose and the lip, and delimiting the nose area.
(3) Automatic positioning of the corners of the mouth. Because the different facial expressions may cause great change of the mouth shape, and the mouth area is easily interfered by the factors such as beard and the like, the accuracy of mouth feature point extraction has great influence on recognition. Because the positions of the mouth corner points are relatively slightly changed under the influence of expressions and the like, and the positions of the corner points are accurate, the important characteristic points of the mouth region are adopted as the positioning modes of the two mouth corner points.
On the basis of determining the characteristic points of the binocular region and the nasal region, firstly, determining a first valley point of a Y-coordinate projection curve below a nostril (in the same way, burr influence caused by beard, nevus and other factors needs to be eliminated through a proper peak-valley delta value) as a Y-coordinate position of a mouth by using a region gray scale integral projection method; then selecting a mouth region, and processing the region image by using a Susan operator to obtain a mouth edge image; and finally, extracting angular points to obtain the accurate positions of the two mouth corners.
S103: and establishing a face color 3D grid according to the feature points.
S104: and measuring the characteristic values of the characteristic points according to the face color 3D grid and calculating the connection relation between the characteristic points.
Specifically, the color information may measure a relevant feature value for a feature point of the face feature, where the feature value includes one or more of a position, a distance, a shape, a size, an angle, an arc, and a curvature of the face feature on the 2D plane, and further includes a measure of color, brightness, texture, and the like. For example, the central pixel point of the iris extends to the periphery, so as to obtain all the pixel positions of the eye, the shape of the eye, the inclination radian of the eye corner, the color of the eye and the like.
By combining the color information and the depth information, the connection relationship between the feature points can be calculated, and the connection relationship can be the topological connection relationship and the space geometric distance between the feature points, or can also be the dynamic connection relationship information of various combinations of the feature points, and the like.
According to the measurement and calculation of the face color 3D grid, local information including plane information of each element of the face and the spatial position relation of the feature points on each element and overall information of the spatial position relation between each element can be obtained. The local information and the overall information respectively reflect the information and the structural relation hidden on the human face RGBD image from the local part and the overall part.
S105: and analyzing the characteristic values and the connection relation to acquire the 3D space distribution characteristic information of the characteristic points.
In step S105, by analyzing the feature values and the connection relationship, the three-dimensional face shape information can be obtained, so as to obtain the 3D spatial distribution feature information of each feature point of the face, so that the face can be identified by the 3D spatial distribution feature information of the face in the later stage of face identification.
Different from the prior art, the face color 3D grid is established through the characteristic points collected on the face RGBD atlas, and the characteristic values and the connection relations of the characteristic points are obtained through the face color 3D grid, so that the 3D space distribution characteristic information of the face characteristic points is obtained to be applied to face recognition.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method for acquiring 3D feature information of a human face according to another embodiment of the present invention.
S201: and acquiring an RGBD face image.
S202: and collecting the characteristic points of the human face through the RGBD human face image.
S203: and establishing a face color 3D grid according to the feature points.
S204: and measuring the characteristic values of the characteristic points according to the face color 3D grid, and calculating the topological connection relation and the space geometric distance between the characteristic points.
S205: and analyzing the characteristic values, the topological connection relation among the characteristic points and the space geometric distance by adopting a finite element analysis method to obtain the 3D space distribution characteristic information of the characteristic points.
In particular, the face color 3D mesh may be surface deformed using finite element analysis. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a method for simulating a real physical system (geometric and load conditions) by using a mathematical approximation method. Also with simple and interacting elements, i.e. units, a finite number of unknowns can be used to approximate a real system of infinite unknowns.
For example, after deformation energy analysis is performed on each line cell of the face color 3D mesh, a cell stiffness equation of the line cell can be established. Then, constraint units, such as point, line, tangent vector, normal vector and other constraint unit types are introduced. Because the curved surface meets the requirements of the shape, position, size, continuity with the adjacent curved surface and the like in the audit design, the curved surface is realized through constraint. The embodiment processes the constraints through a penalty function method, and finally obtains a rigidity matrix and an equivalent load array of the constraint unit.
And expanding the data structure of the deformation curve surface, so that the data structure of the deformation curve surface comprises the geometric parameter parts such as orders, control vertexes, node vectors and the like, and also comprises parameters indicating physical characteristics and external loads. Therefore, the deformation curve surface can integrally represent some complicated body representations, and the geometric model of the human face is greatly simplified. Moreover, the physical parameters and the constraint parameters in the data structure uniquely determine the configuration geometric parameters of the human face,
the deformation curve curved surface is solved by finite elements through program design, and the unit inlet program is set for different constraint units, so that any constraint unit stiffness matrix and any constraint unit load array can be calculated. And calculating the overall stiffness matrix by adopting a variable bandwidth one-dimensional array storage method according to the symmetry, banding and sparsity of the overall stiffness matrix. When the linear algebraic equation set is assembled, not only the linear unit or surface unit stiffness matrix but also the constraint unit stiffness matrix are added into the overall stiffness matrix in a 'number matching seating' mode, meanwhile, the constraint unit equivalent load array is added into the overall load array, and finally, the linear algebraic equation set is solved by adopting a Gaussian elimination method.
For example, the modeling method of the curved surface of the human face can be described by a mathematical model as follows:
the obtained deformation curve
Or curved surface
Is a solution to the extreme problem
Wherein,the energy functional function of the curved surface reflects the deformation characteristic of the curved surface to a certain extent and endows the curved surface with physical characteristics. f1, f2, f3, f4 are functions relating to the variables in (-) and,is the boundary of the parameter definition domain, and Γ' is the curve within the curved parameter domain, (μ0,v0) The method is characterized in that the method is a parameter value in a parameter domain, the condition (1) is a boundary interpolation constraint, the condition (2) is a continuity constraint at a boundary, the condition (3) is a constraint of a characteristic line in a curved surface, and the condition (4) is a constraint of an inner point of the curved surface. In application, an energy functionalTaking the following form:
the curve:
surface bending:
wherein α, β, γ respectively represent the stretch, play and distortion coefficients of the curve, and α ij and β ij respectively represent the local stretch and play coefficients of the curve in the μ, v direction at (μ, v).
It can be seen from the mathematical model that the deformation curve surface modeling method treats various constraints in a same and coordinated way, not only satisfies the local control, but also ensures the whole wide and smooth. Using the variational principle, solving the above-mentioned extremum problem can be converted to solving the following equations:
where δ represents the first order variation. Equation (5) is a differential equation, which is a numerical solution because it is complicated and difficult to find an accurate analysis result. For example, finite element methods are used for solving.
The finite element method can be considered as that firstly a proper interpolation form is selected according to the requirement, and then the combination parameters are solved, so that the obtained solution is not only a continuous form, but also the grid generated by pretreatment lays a foundation for finite element analysis.
In the recognition stage, the similarity measure between the unknown face image and the known face template is given by:
in the formula: ciXjRespectively the characteristics of the face to be recognized and the characteristics of the face in the face library, i1,i2,j1,j2,k1,k2Is a 3D mesh vertex feature. The first term in the formula is to select the corresponding local feature X in the two vector fieldsjAnd CiThe second term is to calculate the local position relationship and the matching order, so that the best match is the one with the minimum energy function.
The face color 3D grid is subjected to surface deformation by the finite element method, so that each point of the face color 3D grid is continuously close to the feature point of a real face, thereby obtaining three-dimensional face shape information and further obtaining 3D space distribution feature information of the face feature point.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for acquiring 3D feature information of a human face according to another embodiment of the present invention.
S301: and acquiring an RGBD face image.
S302: and collecting the characteristic points of the human face through the RGBD human face image.
In this embodiment, the discrete wavelet transform is used to perform face specific positioning to collect feature points of a face. Firstly, the face area is positioned, and the shape of the face is similar to an ellipse, so that the face area can be determined by using an ellipse detection algorithm, and the rotation angle of the face is obtained. The ellipse is detected to obtain parameters including the coordinates of the central point, the lengths of the long axis and the short axis, the rotation angle of the ellipse and the like, and the rotation angle can determine the rotation angle of the face.
Then, the positioning of the human face features, for example, the eyes, eyebrows, nose tip and mouth appear as horizontal features, and the eyes and mouth are positioned by the LH component, which is a low-frequency signal in the x direction and a high-frequency signal in the y direction. The iris is one of the most important characteristics of the human face, contains more information, and is positioned by selecting an original image.
(1) Eye and iris localization. The eye is positioned as an eye feature in combination with the eyebrow. If the obtained eye region completely contains the iris, the positioning is correct. After the eye region is positioned, the iris is positioned, the shape of the iris is a standard circle, and the iris is always pressed by partial persons due to the structure of the eye, so that the iris is positioned by HOUGH transformation with strong anti-interference performance.
(2) Mouth and nose positioning. The mouth and nose tip are represented as horizontal features, and the wavelet transform LH component is a line segment or an arc segment parallel to the short axis of the ellipse. The nasal alar is vertical characteristic and characteristic relatively stable, divide into two kinds in wavelet transform HL and is the line segment parallel to ellipse major axis, adopt HOUGH transform and the geometric relation among the human face characteristic, detect the line segment of mouth, nose head and nasal alar, mark in the picture.
S303: and establishing a face color 3D grid according to the feature points.

S305: and analyzing the dynamic connection relation between the characteristic values and the characteristic points by adopting a wavelet transformation texture analysis method to obtain the 3D space distribution characteristic information of the characteristic points.
Specifically, the dynamic connection relationship is a dynamic connection relationship of various combinations of feature points. The wavelet transform is a local transform of time and frequency, has the characteristics of multi-resolution analysis, and has the capability of characterizing local characteristics of signals in a time domain and a frequency domain. In the embodiment, through wavelet transformation texture analysis, by extracting, classifying and analyzing texture features and combining human face feature values and dynamic connection relation information, specifically including color information and depth information, stereoscopic human face shape information is finally obtained, and finally human face shape information with invariance under the condition of human face subtle expression change is analyzed and extracted from the human face shape information to encode human face shape model parameters, wherein the model parameters can be used as geometric features of a human face, so that 3D space distribution feature information of human face feature points is obtained.
In the method for acquiring 3D feature information of a human face provided in some other embodiments, the method for acquiring 2D feature information of a human face is also compatible with the acquisition of 2D feature information of a human face, and the method for acquiring 2D feature information of a human face may be various methods that are conventional in the art. In the embodiments, the 3D feature information of the face is obtained, and the 2D feature information of the face is also obtained, so that the 3D and 2D recognition of the face is performed at the same time, and the accuracy of the face recognition is further improved.
For example, the basis of a three-dimensional wavelet transform is as follows:
wherein,
AJ1as a function f (x, y, z) to space V3 J1The projection operator of (a) is determined,
Qnis Hx,Hy,Hz Gx,Gy,GzA combination of (1);
