Embodiment Construction

[0035] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0036] In the field of computer vision and image processing based on neural networks, the more layers of the network, the higher the level of image features that can be extracted, and the better the effect of image processing. However, gradient disappearance is the main obstacle to training deep networks, which will lead to failure to converge. In view of this, the present invention proposes a novel face depth prediction method based on convolutional neural network. The core of the method is to quickly train and generate a face depth prediction neural network with more layers and more accurate predictions. The general flow of the face depth prediction neural network is as follows: figure 1As shown, first build a convolutional neural network with a specific architecture, then initialize the training parameters of the convolutional neural networ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a human face depth-prediction method based on convolution neural network, which comprises the following steps: generating a human face depth-prediction neural network in which a specially structured convolution neural network is created wherein the specially structured convolution neural network refers to the normalized operation and the excited operation in successive series-connection from the output end of the convolution layer, in series-connection with the aforementioned two operation convolution layers and in parallel to the KxK convolution; and initializing the convolution neural network in which the RGB human face images are inputted into the convolution neural network, and the minimized cost function is used for the iteration of the target so as to train and form the human face depth-prediction neural network.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the fields of computer vision and digital image processing, in particular to a face depth prediction method based on a convolutional neural network. Background technique [0002] Facial depth prediction is a novel and challenging problem in computer vision. Depth prediction for faces is an important part of understanding the geometry of the whole face. Correspondingly, the geometric relationship of the face obtained in this way can well reflect the organs on the face and the environment of the whole face. If better depth information of the face can be obtained, it will provide a very large contribution to the face recognition problem. Help, but also help to build a 3D model of the face, and can also help solve the problem of 3D reconstruction of the face. [0003] However, predicting the depth information of the entire face from an RGB image of a face is a problem with a pathological nature, because there are many unc...
