Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the security check technical field, specifically relates to a verification method and system for self-service security check. BACKGROUND

[0002] Airport security is a necessary link for passengers to take civil aviation aircraft, mainly through airport management personnel to verify the identity of the passengers, and then check the personal belongings of the passengers, but with the continuous acceleration of China's urbanization process, the population density of cities increases sharply, and the passenger flow of large and medium-sized airports, high-speed rail stations and other public travel places also increases year by year, which also brings new challenges to airport security, and forces airlines and airports to improve the efficiency of each link, so it is particularly important to simplify the process after the passengers arrive at the airport and reduce the queuing time for security check, and ensure the authenticity and safety of the passengers boarding.

[0003] In order to solve the problems of low efficiency of artificial identity verification and long queuing time for security check, the airport currently introduces face recognition into the verification of the identity of the airport security, such as the existing patent CN109117727A - a method for verifying the authenticity of passengers at the boarding gate based on face recognition technology, which discloses that when the passenger handles the check-in, the passenger's face is automatically collected by the camera, the authenticity of the identity card is automatically judged by the identity card identification instrument, and the identity card number is automatically identified, and when the passenger passes through the airport security, the barcode scanner scans the departure date and flight number on the passenger's boarding pass associated with the passenger, which compares the face photo of the passenger's identity card with the face scanned on the spot by the passenger, that is, the verification of the identity of the passenger, and then scans the boarding pass to complete the verification of the ticket.

[0004] The existing problems are: the verification of the identity of the passenger is a system that requires the active cooperation of the passenger, which requires the passenger to face the face collection device (camera) and collect the front face, and the passenger needs to carry the identity card or boarding pass and other valid identity documents for verification, and the passenger needs to take the valid identity documents out of the bag and actively cooperate with the face collection during the airport security check, which consumes a long time and cannot meet the needs of the airport with a large passenger flow, and similar faces have certain common characteristics, which can easily cause identification errors, resulting in low recognition accuracy, only 97%, and the information authenticity cannot be guaranteed, which can cause illegal persons to use other people's identity cards to enter the entrance channel and board the plane, which poses a great threat to the safety of people's lives and property.

[0047] Embodiment one:

[0048] As shown in the figure, the verification method for self-service security check comprises the following steps: Figures 1-3

[0049] S1, establishing a passenger feature library and extracting a first fused face image deep feature matrix:

[0050] The passenger feature library is established, the certificate information of the passenger's identity certificate is taken as the registration information, the front face image and the side face image of the passenger are collected as the registration image, after the registration image is preprocessed, the first fused face image shallow feature matrix is obtained through shallow feature extraction, replacement and integration, the first fused face image shallow feature matrix is subjected to deep feature extraction by using a deep feature extraction model to obtain a first fused face image deep feature matrix, and the registration information is associated with the first fused face image deep feature matrix and stored in the passenger feature library.

[0051] S2, associating the passenger feature library with an aviation information platform;

[0052] The registration information of the passenger in the passenger feature library, the first fused face image deep feature matrix and the boarding pass information of the aviation information platform are bound. The registration information of the passenger, the first fused face image deep feature matrix and the flight information are bound, and the corresponding first fused face image deep feature matrix in the passenger feature library is called according to the boarding pass information of the current flight of the aviation information platform.

[0053] S3, extracting a second fused face image deep feature matrix:

[0054] The front face image and the side face image of the passenger in the security check site are collected as real-time images, the front face image and the side face image are collected by a front camera and a side camera respectively, after the real-time images are preprocessed, the second fused face image shallow feature matrix is obtained through shallow feature extraction, replacement and integration, the second fused face image shallow feature matrix is subjected to deep feature extraction by using a deep feature extraction model to obtain a second fused face image deep feature matrix.

[0055] S4, similarity comparison:

[0056] ​According to the boarding pass information of the current flight, the corresponding first fused face image deep feature matrix in the passenger feature library is retrieved, the second fused face image deep feature matrix is compared with the first fused face image deep feature matrix retrieved from the passenger feature library, a comparison similarity threshold is set, if the similarity is higher than the preset similarity threshold, the verification is passed, if the similarity is lower than the preset similarity threshold, the verification is not passed, and the comparison is performed on the basis of the final fused deep feature, so as to realize the passenger identity verification. The first fused face image deep feature matrix and the second fused face image deep feature matrix are one-dimensional vectors with fixed length. After normalizing all feature vectors (the feature vectors are converted into unit vectors with invariant direction by dividing by their own length), the cosine similarity (the radian value of the angle between two unit vectors) between each other is calculated for comparison.

[0057] The deep feature extraction model is constructed, and the specific steps include: collecting the front face image and the side face image of the sample object as sample images, after the sample images are preprocessed, the sample images are subjected to shallow feature extraction, replacement and integration to obtain a sample fused face image shallow feature matrix. A sample fused face image shallow feature matrix of a certain scale is constructed as a training data set, the training data set is input into the MobileNet network model, the training of the MobileNet network model is completed, and the deep feature extraction model is obtained.

[0058] The above picture preprocessing includes the following specific steps: performing face detection on the front face image and the side face image to obtain a front face region image and a side face region image.

[0059] The front face region image and the side face region image are expanded outward by a certain multiple, the front face region image, the side face region image and the ear region image are expanded outward by a certain multiple, and the specific multiple is 1.2. Expanding the face region image outward by a part can include more comprehensive face edge information (such as ears, hair, accessories, etc.) on the basis of the face information, which is helpful to obtain more accurate recognition results.

[0060] Then, the expanded front face region image and the expanded side face region image are intercepted to obtain a cropped front face region image and a cropped side face region image, and the corresponding images are cropped according to the obtained region to exclude irrelevant redundant information, so as to facilitate subsequent use.

[0061] In the cropped side face region image, face key point detection (35 points) is performed to obtain three key points of the upper, middle and lower ears. A rectangular region is constructed with the upper and lower two key points as diagonal anchor points. If the width of the rectangular region is too narrow, the width of the rectangular region is expanded by at least half of the height to obtain an ear region image. The face key points are obtained for ear region positioning. In the 35 face key points, a single ear region includes the upper and lower two key points (if the two points are approximately on a vertical line, the width of the positioned ear region may be too narrow, and the width needs to be appropriately expanded to include a more complete ear region). The ear region image is expanded outward by a certain multiple, and then the expanded ear region image is cropped to obtain a cropped ear region image;

[0062] The cropped front face region image, the cropped side face region image and the cropped ear region image are scaled to a fixed size. The purpose is to facilitate the input of the subsequent neural network model. Because the input image size of the neural network model is fixed, the image must be scaled to the corresponding size to be input. The "fixed size" here corresponds to the input image size of the neural network model. Specifically, the size of the scaled front face region image (WxH) is retained. The RGB color channel (WxHx3) is retained. Retaining the RGB color channel can retain more original input information. That is, in the subsequent recognition process, the front face image is the main information.

[0063] The size of the scaled side face region image (WxH) is converted from a color image to a grayscale image, and only one color channel (WxHx1) is retained. The image is scaled to a fixed size to facilitate the input of the subsequent neural network model. Retaining only a single grayscale channel can compress the input information to a certain extent. That is, in the subsequent recognition process, the side face image is the secondary information.

[0064] According to the scaling ratio of the side face region image, the face image and the ear region image are scaled at the same ratio. The purpose is to ensure that the images are not misaligned before and after scaling. The ear region in the face region can correspond to a region with the same relative position, so as to facilitate subsequent processing in the same size dimension. The size of the scaled ear region image (w x h) is converted from a color image to a grayscale image, and only one color channel (w x h x 1) is retained. The scaled front face region image, the scaled side face region image and the scaled ear region image are obtained.

[0065] The specific steps of the above shallow feature extraction, replacement and integration include: extracting shallow features from the scaled front face region image, the scaled side face region image and the scaled ear region image respectively through the three pre-trained full convolutional neural networks, while keeping the output feature matrix the same as the input image in dimension and keeping the output feature the same as the input image in size, so as to facilitate the subsequent replacement processing of elements in the shallow feature matrix, and obtaining a front face shallow feature matrix with a size of (WxHx3), a side face shallow feature matrix with a size of (WxHx1) and an ear shallow feature matrix with a size of (w x h x 1) respectively; the pre-training of FCN on ImageNet can be trained by adding a full connection layer at the back of the network through the label of the existing image, and the full connection layer can be discarded after training, and the reason for using FCN is that the input and output of the model are matrix images, which can keep the size consistent before and after extraction of shallow features, facilitating subsequent operations.

[0066] The elements in the side face shallow feature matrix corresponding to the relative position of the ear region are replaced with the elements in the ear shallow feature matrix one by one, and the elements in the side face shallow feature corresponding to the relative position of the ear region shallow feature are replaced, which is equivalent to a more refined calculation and processing of this part of the shallow feature, and on this basis, further extraction of deep features can obtain more accurate recognition results, and after integration, a fused side face image shallow feature matrix is obtained.

[0067] The front face shallow feature matrix extracted and the fused side face image shallow feature matrix obtained by integration are merged and stacked together to obtain a fused face image shallow feature matrix with a size of (WxHx4), and the front face shallow feature matrix and the fused side face image shallow feature matrix are merged to obtain the final integrated face shallow feature with a total of 3 (front) + 1 (side) = 4 channels.

[0068] The computer program is stored in the computer readable storage medium and is executed by the processor to realize the steps of the above-mentioned verification method for self-service security check, the computer readable storage medium can be any available medium that can be accessed by a computer or a data storage device such as a server, data center, etc. integrated with one or more available media, which can be a magnetic medium (e.g., floppy disk, hard disk, magnetic tape), optical medium (e.g., DVD) or solid state disk.

[0069] The front face and the side face of the passenger in the security check site are collected, and the pictures are preprocessed to obtain a scaled front face region image, a scaled side face region image and a scaled ear region image, and then the second fusion face image shallow feature matrix is obtained through shallow feature extraction, replacement and integration, the second fusion face image shallow feature matrix is subjected to deep feature extraction to obtain the second fusion face image shallow feature matrix, and the second fusion face image deep feature matrix is obtained based on the ear information fusion of the front face and the side face, so that the fusion of the overall and local face features is realized, the verification accuracy is improved, the common features of similar faces are effectively reduced, the identification error rate is reduced, the recognition precision is improved, and the safety of people's life and property is ensured.

[0070] The first fusion face image deep feature matrix in the passenger feature library is retrieved according to the boarding pass information of the current flight, and the second fusion face image deep feature matrix is compared with the retrieved first fusion face image deep feature matrix in the passenger feature library to realize the verification of the passenger's identity; since the passenger feature library is associated with the aviation information platform, the passenger feature library binds the registration information, the first fusion face image deep feature matrix and the boarding pass information of the aviation information platform, retrieves the first fusion face image deep feature matrix in the passenger feature library according to the boarding pass information of the current flight of the aviation information platform, and compares the first fusion face image deep feature matrix of the current flight to complete the verification of the paper ticket, so that the passenger does not need to carry an ID card in the security check process, the security check time and the boarding time of the passenger are shortened, the security check efficiency is improved, the repeated verification of the identity information is not needed, only the passengers who meet the conditions of the current flight can pass the security check, and the problem of incorrect boarding of the passenger is avoided.
