Embodiment Construction

[0054] Hereinafter, the present invention will be further described in detail with reference to the drawings and embodiments. In the present invention, GPU is used as the computing platform, CUDA is used as the GPU parallel computing framework, and Caffe is selected as the CNN framework.

[0055] The specific implementation steps are as follows:

[0056] Step 1: Determine whether the acceleration condition is met by the input parameters of the convolutional layer.

[0057] When both K and L are greater than 100 or P is greater than 5, this method can achieve an acceleration effect.

[0058] Step 2: Input image and convolution kernel size expansion.

[0059] CUDA_KERNEL_LOOP parallel loop is used to create N threads, each thread processes the expansion operation of one pixel in the image, and N threads perform the expansion operation in parallel.

[0060] Expanding the size of the input image and the convolution kernel requires additional buffer space. The parameters of each convolution...

Abstract

The invention relates to a convolution theorem based face verification accelerating method, and belongs to the field of face verification in computer vision. For a face verification system adopting a CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) technology, a convolution theorem method is adopted to replace the conventional convolution computation method to perform convolution computation on a convolution layer meeting an acceleration condition on the basis of using a GPU parallel computation platform. The convolution theorem shows that convolution in the space domain is equivalent to product in the frequency domain. Through transforming time-consuming convolution computation into product computation in the frequency domain, the computation amount can be significantly reduced, and the computation speed of a CNN is accelerated. In allusion to problems of great computational burden and slow operation speed of the face verification system, the method enables the operation speed of the face verification system to be obviously improved, and the processing capacity for mass data can be improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of face verification in computer vision, and relates to an acceleration method for face verification, in particular to a face verification acceleration method based on the convolution theorem. Background technique [0002] With the development of society, people’s requirements for security and convenience are increasing. Face verification technology has made great progress in recent decades. It has the advantages of directness, friendliness, and convenience. It can be used in login verification and identity verification. Recognition and many other scenes have received extensive attention and research. The goal of face verification is to determine whether the faces in two face pictures are the same person, which is mainly composed of three parts: face image preprocessing, feature extraction, and feature measurement. After deep learning was proposed, especially after the application of convolutional neural networks (CNN) in...
