Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of computer vision, and relates to a face alignment method based on a residual hourglass network, in particular to a face alignment method based on a novel residual hourglass network in the field of face recognition of digital images.
Background
The face alignment is also called face key point detection and is used for positioning key points such as eyes, a nose, a mouth, a face contour and the like of a face, the face alignment can help to provide accurate face shape information with specific semantics, and the face alignment plays a vital role in the fields of face recognition, face expression analysis, gender age identification, three-dimensional face modeling and the like. Due to the natural scene or the existence of facial expression, exaggerated head posture, difference of illumination conditions and partial shielding under an unconstrained condition, the problem of face alignment still faces huge challenges, so that an efficient and accurate face alignment algorithm can better meet the requirements of people.
in recent years, with the wide application of the deep learning framework in the field of face alignment, human research on face problems has been rapidly progressing. The advantage of deep learning is that the feature extraction is particularly prominent, and the deep network structure of deep learning can extract data features layer by layer, so that the extracted features are more obvious and easier to classify.
Deep learning is introduced into a face alignment algorithm DCNN (Deep Convolutional Network) [ document 1] at the earliest, and by designing a cascaded Convolutional neural Network with three levels, the problem of local optimization caused by initial improper is solved, and more accurate key point detection is obtained by means of strong feature extraction capability of the CNN. Compared with the early face alignment algorithm based on the optimization (ASM [ document 2], AAM [ document 3] - [ document 5], CLM [ document 6] - [ document 7]), the aim of face alignment is achieved by optimizing an error equation, the nonlinear optimization problem is relatively complex to solve, the solving cost is increased due to overhigh middle dimension, the face alignment algorithm [ document 8] - [ document 14] based on the cascade shape regression continuously approaches to a standard shape by gradually estimating the shape increment according to the initialized shape, the requirement on the initialized shape is higher, the extraction of the features is more complicated, and the deep learning method is obviously simpler and more efficient.
with the recognition and use of the convolutional neural network, an hourglass network [ document 15] has been proposed to replace the CNN extraction features, and for the correlation task of face alignment, the parts of the face do not have the best recognition accuracy on the same feature map. For example, eyes may be easily recognized on the feature map of the layer 3, and mouths are more easily recognized on the layer 5, so that compared with a traditional convolutional neural network, only the last layer of convolution is used as a target feature, the hourglass network combines the features of the network at the lower level and the higher level by using a unique structure from bottom to top, so that the finally obtained feature is more effective, and therefore, the maximum utilization of image feature information is achieved. The novel residual error-based hourglass network increases convolution branches on the basis of the hourglass network, correspondingly adjusts the scale of a convolution kernel along with the number of layers of the hourglass network, increases the receptive field, balances the relationship between the feature map resolution and the receptive field, enables the network to extract more detailed information, maintains the structural information from local parts to the whole part, and increases the capability of the network to extract more effective characteristics.
