Abstract

A method based on VPF and improved SVSAN for locating the canthi and pupil in order to recognize human face, sex, expression, age, etc includes such steps as determining the horizontal coordinate of pupil center according to the maximum of VPF, determining the left and right boundaries of pupil (the diameter and radius of pupil) according to the positions of the maximal and minimal first-order derivative of VPF, matching the circle with template to obtain the circle center of pupil, and determining the positions of canthi according to improved SUSCAN operator.

Description

Based on the canthus of VPF and improved SUSAN and the localization method of pupil
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of recognition of face that is applied to, the eyeball attitude estimates, Expression Recognition based on VPF (variance projection function) and the pupil of improved SUSAN (minimum monodrome fragment attracts to examine) and the localization method at canthus, relate to image processing field.
Background technology
The human face characteristic point detection is the key technology during recognition of face, Expression Recognition, sex identification etc. are used, and the localized accuracy of its characteristic point position directly has influence on the precision of identification, and eye feature is particularly important in face characteristic.Therefore, the position of locating eyes exactly can be improved the precision of identification widely.The location of current eye position is main according to the analysis to gradation of image, image border.Because the influence of complex background and illumination, only relying on gray scale and edge, to locate eyes be the very work of difficulty but in most of the cases.
Find by prior art documents, (Rein-Lien Hsu such as Rein-Lien Hsu, MohamedAbdel-Mottaleb, Anil K.Jain Face Detection In Color images IEEETRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE, VOL 24, NO.5.MAY 2002) once the statistics by great amount of samples provided the distribution of eye areas at each component of YCbCr color space, and locate the position of human eye roughly according to the distribution of these components, but for different illumination, the attitude of ethnic group and people's face, this method still can not provide correct positioning.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is at the deficiencies in the prior art, propose a kind of based on the pupil of VPF and improved SUSAN and the localization method at canthus, make the pupil position location of its foundation and the method for canthus location positioning, can be used for recognition of face, sex identification, estimation of Age, fields such as eyes attitude estimation.
The present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions, the present invention orients the abscissa of the center of pupil according to the maximum of VPF, the border, the left and right sides of determining pupil according to the maximum and the minima position of VPF first derivative then, also just obtained the abscissa of pupil center location accurately, border, the pupil left and right sides is the diameter of pupil in the distance of abscissa direction, thereby obtain the radius of pupil, the circle that is the pupil radius with a radius at pupil center location abscissa place carries out template matching from top to bottom then, because the pupil corresponding gray is smaller, therefore making in the template average gray reach minimum position in the process that template moves up and down is exactly the vertical coordinate of pupil center location, and then obtains the center (the pupil center of circle) of pupil; According to the position at improved SUSAN operator detection canthus, pupil center, pupil radius, the location of also just having finished eyes after all locate the position at canthus.
The present invention includes following steps:
1. the smoothing processing of eye areas is carried out smoothing denoising to eye areas utilization median filter, improves the precision of subsequent treatment;
2. each row VPF of the image after calculating smoothly, the abscissa of location pupil center location;
This string in the pupil center location correspondence, this zone is the colour of skin above the pupil, its corresponding gray strengthens, the pupil corresponding gray of this section of mediating is less, and also be that the area of skin color corresponding gray is bigger below the pupil, maximizing is the abscissa of the center of pupil on the whole VPF that is calculated.
3. determine the abscissa in the pupil center of circle, the vertical coordinate in the pupil center of circle, the diameter of pupil, the pupil that draws circle;
The abscissa in the described pupil center of circle, by calculating the derivative of VPF in second step, this gray value that lists pixel is very approaching in the left side of pupil left margin, and its variance ratio is less, and this string of right side is on the pupil position, variance ratio is bigger, and variance has a sudden change in pupil left margin position, changes from small to big, just its derivative value is bigger, and for just, search for left from pupil center location, the maximum present position of VPF derivative is the position of pupil left margin; In like manner, search for to the right from pupil center location, the minima present position of VPF derivative is pupil right margin present position.
The ordinate in the described pupil center of circle; Seeking the ordinate in the pupil center of circle realizes by the following method: the circular shuttering that is PD with a diameter at the abscissa place of pupil center location moves from top to bottom; Calculate simultaneously the average gray under this template; Because the gray value that the pixel on the pupil is corresponding is very little; When template just covers on the pupil; Its average gray value reaches minimum of a value; Therefore the ordinate position that makes the interior pixel average gray of template reach minimum of a value is the ordinate in the pupil center of circle
The diameter of described pupil, because pupil is a circle, the left and right sides boundary position of pupil all finds, the distance between its left and right sides boundary position is the diameter of pupil.
4. on eye areas, use improved SUSAN operator and find some alternative canthus;
Operator is detected at described improved SUSAN angle, is meant: the corresponding rule of utilization is removed pseudo-canthus point, thereby obtains real canthus point, and concrete operation rule is as follows:
If on the A. alternative zone within border, the pupil left and right sides, this canthus point is a pseudo-canthus point so, should remove;
B. for the left eye angle, the average gray value in its fixed size zone, left side (area of skin color) should be less than the average gray value in fixed size zone, the right (white of the eye zone), therefore, for eye image, do not satisfy the angle point of above-mentioned condition on the zone that the pupil left margin is turned left and all should remove; In like manner, for the right eye angle, the average gray value in its fixed size zone, the right (area of skin color) should be less than the average gray value in its fixed size zone, left side (white of the eye zone), and for eye image, the pupil right margin angle point that does not satisfy above-mentioned condition on the zone of turning right all should be removed;
If C. a plurality of angle points are arranged in the zone of a fixed size, the angle point of Grad minimum should be removed so because real canthus point is in the eyes intersection of two contour edges up and down, and this position Grad should be very big.
Method of the present invention can obtain higher accuracy rate.Owing to used a gray value that lists each pixel, simultaneously they have been carried out statistical analysis, the position of finding the variable quantity maximum is a pupil center location, pupil left and right sides boundary position, simultaneously traditional SUSAN operator has been carried out corresponding improvement and detected eyes, experiment shows that the localized method of pupil and canthus that the present invention proposes is better than the existing localized method of traditional pupil and canthus of only considering pixel level information.In the background complexity, under the not so good situation of illumination condition method of the present invention get advantage can be more obvious.
