Face recognition algorithms based on deep learning methods have become increasingly popular. Most of these are based on highly precise but complex convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which require significant computing resources and storage, and are difficult to deploy on mobile devices or embedded terminals. In this paper, we propose several methods to improve the algorithms for face recognition based on a lightweight CNN, which is further optimized in terms of the network architecture and training pattern on the basis of MobileFaceNet. Regarding the network architecture, we introduce the Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) block and propose three improved structures via a channel attention mechanism—the depthwise SE module, the depthwise separable SE module, and the linear SE module—which are able to learn the correlation of information between channels and assign them different weights. In addition, a novel training method for the face recognition task combined with an additive angular margin loss function is proposed that performs the compression and knowledge transfer of the deep network for face recognition. Finally, we obtained high-precision and lightweight face recognition models with fewer parameters and calculations that are more suitable for applications. Through extensive experiments and analysis, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Model Size

Several kinds of pretrained convolutional neural networks (CNN) exist nowadays. Utilizing these networks with the new classification task requires the retraining with new data sets. With the small embedded device, large network cannot be implemented. The authors study the use of pretrained models and customizing them towards accuracy and size against face recognition tasks. The results show 1) the performance of existing pretrained networks (e.g., AlexNet, GoogLeNet, CaffeNet, SqueezeNet), as well as size, and 2) demonstrate the layers customization towards the model size and accuracy. The studied results show that among the various networks with different data sets, SqueezeNet can achieve the same accuracy (0.99) as others with small size (up to 25 times smaller). Secondly, the two customizations with layer skipping are presented. The experiments show the example of SqueezeNet layer customizing, reducing the network size while keeping the accuracy (i.e., reducing the size by 7% with the slower convergence time). The experiments are measured based on Caffe 0.15.14.

Robust Face Recognition

<p><span>In the last decade, facial recognition techniques are considered the most important fields of research in biometric technology. In this research paper, we present a Face Recognition (FR) system divided into three steps: The Viola-Jones face detection algorithm, facial image enhancement using Modified Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization algorithm (M-CLAHE), and feature learning for classification. For learning the features followed by classification we used VGG16, ResNet50 and Inception-v3 Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) architectures for the proposed system. Our experimental work was performed on the Extended Yale B database and CMU PIE face database. Finally, the comparison with the other methods on both databases shows the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed approach. Where the Inception-v3 architecture has achieved a rate of 99, 44% and 99, 89% respectively.</span></p>
