This paper presents an efficient 3D face recognition method to handle facial expression and hair occlusion. The proposed method uses facial curves to form a rejection classifier and produce a facial deformation mapping and then adaptively selects regions for matching. When a new 3D face with an arbitrary pose and expression is queried, the pose is normalized based on the automatically detected nose tip and the principal component analysis (PCA) follows. Then, the facial curve in the nose region is extracted and used to form the rejection classifier which quickly eliminates dissimilar faces in the gallery for efficient recognition. Next, six facial regions which cover the face are segmented and curves in these regions are used to map facial deformation. Regions used for matching are automatically selected based on the deformation mapping. In the end, results of all the matching engines are fused by weighted sum rule. The approach is applied on the FRGC v2.0 dataset and a verification rate of 96.0% for ROC III is achieved as a false acceptance rate (FAR) of 0.1%. In the identification scenario, a rank-one accuracy of 97.8% is achieved.  相似文献

The quality of biometric samples plays an important role in biometric authentication systems because it has a direct impact on verification or identification performance. In this paper, we present a novel 3D face recognition system which performs quality assessment on input images prior to recognition. More specifically, a reject option is provided to allow the system operator to eliminate the incoming images of poor quality, e.g. failure acquisition of 3D image, exaggerated facial expressions, etc.. Furthermore, an automated approach for preprocessing is presented to reduce the number of failure cases in that stage. The experimental results show that the 3D face recognition performance is significantly improved by taking the quality of 3D facial images into account. The proposed system achieves the verification rate of 97.09% at the False Acceptance Rate (FAR) of 0.1% on the FRGC v2.0 data set.  相似文献

The accuracy of non-rigid 3D face recognition approaches is highly influenced by their capacity to differentiate between the deformations caused by facial expressions from the distinctive geometric attributes that uniquely characterize a 3D face, interpersonal disparities. We present an automatic 3D face recognition approach which can accurately differentiate between expression deformations and interpersonal disparities and hence recognize faces under any facial expression. The patterns of expression deformations are first learnt from training data in PCA eigenvectors. These patterns are then used to morph out the expression deformations. Similarity measures are extracted by matching the morphed 3D faces. PCA is performed in such a way it models only the facial expressions leaving out the interpersonal disparities. The approach was applied on the FRGC v2.0 dataset and superior recognition performance was achieved. The verification rates at 0.001 FAR were 98.35% and 97.73% for scans under neutral and non-neutral expressions, respectively.  相似文献

A novel resolution invariant local feature based method is proposed for 3D face recognition. Scale space extrema on shape index images and texture images are detected and matched, through which resolution and noise insensitive face matching is achieved without complex preprocessing and normalization. An outlier removal strategy is designed to eliminate incorrect matching points while keeping relevant ones. Six different scale invariant similarity measures are proposed and fused at the score level, which increases the robustness against expression variations. Systematical experiments are conducted on the FRGC v2.0 database, achieving in the neutral vs. all experiment a verification rate of 90.7% with un-normalized similarity scores, and 96.3% with normalized similarity scores at False Acceptance Rate (FAR) of 0.1%, and 96.2% rank-1 identification rate, which are comparable to the state of the art, and promising considering the significantly reduced preprocessing requirement.  相似文献

This paper presents a computationally efficient 3D face recognition system based on a novel facial signature called Angular Radial Signature (ARS) which is extracted from the semi-rigid region of the face. Kernel Principal Component Analysis (KPCA) is then used to extract the mid-level features from the extracted ARSs to improve the discriminative power. The mid-level features are then concatenated into a single feature vector and fed into a Support Vector Machine (SVM) to perform face recognition. The proposed approach addresses the expression variation problem by using facial scans with various expressions of different individuals for training. We conducted a number of experiments on the Face Recognition Grand Challenge (FRGC v2.0) and the 3D track of Shape Retrieval Contest (SHREC 2008) datasets, and a superior recognition performance has been achieved. Our experimental results show that the proposed system achieves very high Verification Rates (VRs) of 97.8% and 88.5% at a 0.1% False Acceptance Rate (FAR) for the “neutral vs. nonneutral” experiments on the FRGC v2.0 and the SHREC 2008 datasets respectively, and 96.7% for the ROC III experiment of the FRGC v2.0 dataset. Our experiments also demonstrate the computational efficiency of the proposed approach.  相似文献

为解决传统立体匹配算法匹配低纹理人脸图像时极易产生误匹配的问题,提出一种基于区域生长的人脸立体匹配算法。该算法利用级联回归树算法提取的人脸特征点将人脸划分为不同区域以分别限制各区域的视差搜索范围,从而避免在全局范围上查找匹配点;同时利用人脸的局部形状特性,采用局部曲面拟合的方式筛除误匹配种子点并生成大量可靠种子点用于区域生长;最后,分别在实验室环境采集的人脸图像和FRGC v2.0人脸数据库上进行定性和定量实验。实验结果表明,与传统算法相比,所提算法能够重建出更加准确的三维人脸模型。经点云配准后与人脸点云真实值的均方根误差在2 mm以内,且不同光照、姿态、表情下人脸图像的重建表明所改进的立体匹配算法具有较好的鲁棒性。  相似文献

In this paper, we present the computational tools and a hardware prototype for 3D face recognition. Full automation is provided through the use of advanced multistage alignment algorithms, resilience to facial expressions by employing a deformable model framework, and invariance to 3D capture devices through suitable preprocessing steps. In addition, scalability in both time and space is achieved by converting 3D facial scans into compact metadata. We present our results on the largest known, and now publicly available, face recognition grand challenge 3D facial database consisting of several thousand scans. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest performance reported on the FRGC v2 database for the 3D modality  相似文献

In this paper we present a new robust approach for 3D face registration to an intrinsic coordinate system of the face. The intrinsic coordinate system is defined by the vertical symmetry plane through the nose, the tip of the nose and the slope of the bridge of the nose. In addition, we propose a 3D face classifier based on the fusion of many dependent region classifiers for overlapping face regions. The region classifiers use PCA-LDA for feature extraction and the likelihood ratio as a matching score. Fusion is realised using straightforward majority voting for the identification scenario. For verification, a voting approach is used as well and the decision is defined by comparing the number of votes to a threshold. Using the proposed registration method combined with a classifier consisting of 60 fused region classifiers we obtain a 99.0% identification rate on the all vs first identification test of the FRGC v2 data. A verification rate of 94.6% at FAR=0.1% was obtained for the all vs all verification test on the FRGC v2 data using fusion of 120 region classifiers. The first is the highest reported performance and the second is in the top-5 of best performing systems on these tests. In addition, our approach is much faster than other methods, taking only 2.5 seconds per image for registration and less than 0.1 ms per comparison. Because we apply feature extraction using PCA and LDA, the resulting template size is also very small: 6 kB for 60 region classifiers.  相似文献

Variations in illumination degrade the performance of appearance based face recognition. We present a novel algorithm for the normalization of color facial images using a single image and its co-registered 3D pointcloud (3D image). The algorithm borrows the physically based Phong’s lighting model from computer graphics which is used for rendering computer images and employs it in a reverse mode for the calculation of face albedo from real facial images. Our algorithm estimates the number of the dominant light sources and their directions from the specularities in the facial image and the corresponding 3D points. The intensities of the light sources and the parameters of the Phong’s model are estimated by fitting the Phong’s model onto the facial skin data. Unlike existing approaches, our algorithm takes into account both Lambertian and specular reflections as well as attached and cast shadows. Moreover, our algorithm is invariant to facial pose and expression and can effectively handle the case of multiple extended light sources. The algorithm was tested on the challenging FRGC v2.0 data and satisfactory results were achieved. The mean fitting error was 6.3% of the maximum color value. Performing face recognition using the normalized images increased both identification and verification rates.  相似文献

The increasing availability of 3D facial data offers the potential to overcome the intrinsic difficulties faced by conventional face recognition using 2D images. Instead of extending 2D recognition algorithms for 3D purpose, this letter proposes a novel strategy for 3D face recognition from the perspective of representing each 3D facial surface with a 2D attribute image and taking the advantage of the advances in 2D face recognition. In our approach, each 3D facial surface is mapped homeomorphically onto a 2D lattice, where the value at each site is an attribute that represents the local 3D geometrical or textural properties on the surface, therefore invariant to pose changes. This lattice is then interpolated to generate a 2D attribute image. 3D face recognition can be achieved by applying the traditional 2D face recognition techniques to obtained attribute images. In this study, we chose the pose invariant local mean curvature calculated at each vertex on the 3D facial surface to construct the 2D attribute image and adopted the eigenface algorithm for attribute image recognition. We compared our approach to state-of-the-art 3D face recognition algorithms in the FRGC (Version 2.0), GavabDB and NPU3D database. Our results show that the proposed approach has improved the robustness to head pose variation and can produce more accurate 3D multi-pose face recognition.  相似文献

A human face does not play its role in the identification of an individual but also communicates useful information about a person’s emotional state at a particular time. No wonder automatic face expression recognition has become an area of great interest within the computer science, psychology, medicine, and human–computer interaction research communities. Various feature extraction techniques based on statistical to geometrical data have been used for recognition of expressions from static images as well as real-time videos. In this paper, we present a method for automatic recognition of facial expressions from face images by providing discrete wavelet transform features to a bank of seven parallel support vector machines (SVMs). Each SVM is trained to recognize a particular facial expression, so that it is most sensitive to that expression. Multi-classification is achieved by combining multiple SVMs performing binary classification using one-against-all approach. The outputs of all SVMs are combined using a maximum function. The classification efficiency is tested on static images from the publicly available Japanese Female Facial Expression database. The experiments using the proposed method demonstrate promising results.  相似文献

In this paper, we present an approach for 3D face recognition from frontal range data based on the ridge lines on the surface of the face. We use the principal curvature, kmax, to represent the face image as a 3D binary image called ridge image. The ridge image shows the locations of the ridge points around the important facial regions on the face (i.e., the eyes, the nose, and the mouth). We utilized the robust Hausdorff distance and the iterative closest points (ICP) for matching the ridge image of a given probe image to the ridge images of the facial images in the gallery. To evaluate the performance of our approach for 3D face recognition, we performed experiments on GavabDB face database (a small size database) and Face Recognition Grand Challenge V2.0 (a large size database). The results of the experiments show that the ridge lines have great capability for 3D face recognition. In addition, we found that as long as the size of the database is small, the performance of the ICP-based matching and the robust Hausdorff matching are comparable. But, when the size of the database increases, ICP-based matching outperforms the robust Hausdorff matching technique.  相似文献
