Embodiment

[0050] see figure 1 , a method for face alignment based on random forest cascade position regression, including the following steps:

[0051] 1) Get the normalized face picture: read the pictures in the training set image library and the corresponding face attributes, and normalize the pictures. The face attributes include the rectangular area information of the face position, that is, x 1 axis, y 1 Axis, w width, h height information and known key point coordinate information of the calibration is x 2 axis, y 2 Axis information;

[0052] 2) Calculate the average shape of the face: determine 20 initial shapes for each face training sample, except for its own shape, that is, form 810×20 training samples, and rotate and scale the key point coordinate information of the training samples to be similar Transform to calculate the average shape of a face:

[0053] M S = 1 N ( Σ ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a face alignment method based on cascade position regression of random forests. The face alignment method is characterized in that 1, a normalized face image is acquired; 2, the average shape of the faces can be calculated; 3, a candidate feature point of a face alignment frame is generated; 4, a face shape index grey level is generated; 5, a face shape index feature X is generated; 6, a face alignment frame is built; 7, the face shape is initialized, and after the continuous iteration, the final estimated face shape can be output. The good robustness can be kept under the conditions of the changing illumination, the changing expressions, and the shielding, and the precision can be improved, and the failure rate can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of digital image processing, in particular to a random forest-based cascade position regression method for face alignment. Background technique [0002] Face alignment plays a very important role in face recognition, face tracking and 3D face reconstruction, attracting more and more researchers. However, due to the diversity of facial expressions, different lighting conditions and occlusions, there are also It brings difficulties and challenges to the research. [0003] Face alignment algorithms are roughly divided into two categories, one is the optimal face alignment algorithm, and the other is the regression-based face alignment algorithm. [0004] The optimal face alignment algorithm achieves the goal of face alignment by optimizing the error. Its performance depends on the design of the error equation itself and its optimization effect, which is difficult to guarantee. For example, the face alignment ...
