Abstract

The invention discloses a face segmentation technology based on deep learning and a level set method, and solves the problem that a face segmentation algorithm performs unsatisfactorily with respect to a face image with too complicated background or uneven gray level in the prior art. Based on the characteristics of the diversity and complexity of human face shapes, blurred boundary contours of face images and complex backgrounds, a deep learning method is introduced into an image segmentation model, shape information of a face sample is learned by using a Boltzmann machine, and then, the shape information is introduced into an energy model expressed by a variational level set and Gaussian distribution fitting to realize fast and accurate face segmentation. The proposed face segmentation method has the characteristics of high efficiency, high accuracy and strong robustness, can reduce over-segmentation and under-segmentation phenomena, and is fast in matching and capable of real-time highly efficient segmentation.

Problems solved by technology

2. Although the region-based active contour model utilizes global information, there is a problem that the sensitivity to the initial contour decreases to a certain extent.

Therefore, in order to avoid the situation that the execution effect of the face segmentation algorithm is not ideal for the face image with too complex background or uneven gray scale, it is necessary to improve the face segmentation technology of the prior art
