The non-rigid 3D characters recovery technology for 2D images array is affected by background diversity, motion complexity, data losing and noise of feature points, so the recognition and recovery accuracy of facial features deformation is low. Due to the high error in traditional method, the paper puts forward a 3D facial recognition algorithm based on random images array, which converts the 2D features to 3D by nonlinear mapping, and completes the recognition on foundation of 3D geometric features distance. The experimental results show that the method effectively reduces error and improves recognition effects.

Face recognition is a computationally challenging task that humans perform effortlessly. Nonetheless, this remarkable ability is limited to familiar faces and does not generalize to unfamiliar faces. To account for humans’ superior ability to recognize familiar faces, current theories suggest that familiar and unfamiliar faces have different perceptual representations. In the current study, we applied a reverse engineering approach to reveal which facial features are critical for familiar face recognition. In contrast to current views, we discovered that the same subset of features that are used for matching unfamiliar faces, are also used for matching as well as recognition of familiar faces. We further show that these features are also used by a deep neural network face recognition algorithm. We therefore propose a new framework that assumes similar perceptual representation for all faces and integrates cognition and perception to account for humans’ superior recognition of familiar faces.

BACKGROUND With the spread of the new crown virus, the wearing of masks as one of the effective preventive measures is getting more and more attention, and the behavior of not wearing a mask is likely to cause the spread of the virus, which is not conducive to the prevention and control of the epidemic. OBJECTIVE In this paper, a new neural network model is used to better recognize the facial features of people with exit masks. METHODS This paper proposes a mask recognition algorithm based on improved YOLO-V4 neural network that can solve this problem well. This paper integrates SE-Net and DenseNet network as the reference neural network of YOLO-V4 and introduces deformable convolution. RESULTS Compared with other target detection networks, the improved YOLO-V4 neural network used in this paper improves the accuracy of mask detection to a certain extent. CONCLUSIONS The improved YOLO-V4 network proposed in this article has verified its feasibility and accuracy through experiments and has great value in use. Improving the YOLO-V4 network can help better respond to face recognition with masks in the epidemic. However, the model studied in this article focuses on accuracy and is slightly lacking in speed. The next step is to increase its speed based on ensuring accuracy and consider actual deployment and use.

This paper analyze the facial features of 6 main chinese nationalities using measurement method on face images. We select several measurement and calculation indices according to the facial geometric features of each group. It is found that Mongolia, Korean and Han nationalitis are similar in facial features, while Tibetans and Uighurs nationalities have larger differences. Analysis of the similarities and differences among groups can provide a scientific basis for face recognition of multiple nationalities.

A face recognition algorithm based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been developed and tested for computer vision applications. A database of about 400 facial images was used to test the algorithm. Each image is represented by a matrix (112 x 92), The data base is divided into subsets, where each subset represents one of 10 different individuals. A 96% rate of successful detection and a 90% rate of successful recognition were obtained. Several factors had to be standardized to provide a constrained environment in order to reduce error. The analysis is based on a set of eigenvectors that defines an Eigen Face (EF). The method proved to be simple and effective. The simplified algorithm and techniques expedited the process without seriously compromising the accuracy.

The COVID-19 virus can be spread through contact and contaminated surfaces; therefore, typical biometric systems like password and fingerprint are unsafe. Face recognition solutions are safer without any need of touching any device. During the COVID-19 situation as all of the people are advised to wear masks on their faces, the existing face detection technique is not able to identify the person with face occlusion. The fraudsters and thieves take advantage of this scenario and misuse the face mask, favoring them to be able to steal and commit various crimes without being identified. Face recognition methods fail to detect or recognize the face as half of the face is masked and the features are suppressed. Face recognition requires the visibility of major facial features for face normalization, orientation correction, and recognition. Thus, the chapter focuses on the facial recognition based on the feature points surrounding the eye region rather than taking the whole face as a parameter.

The Gabor wavelets are used to extract facial features, and then a doubly nonlinear mapping kernel PCA (DKPCA) is proposed to perform feature transformation and face recognition. The conventional kernel PCA nonlinearly maps an input image into a high-dimensional feature space in order to make the mapped features linearly separable. However, this method does not consider the structural characteristics of the face images, and it is difficult to determine which nonlinear mapping is more effective for face recognition. In this work, a new method of nonlinear mapping, which is performed in the original feature space, is defined. The proposed nonlinear mapping not only considers the statistical properties of the input features, but also adopts an Eigen mask to emphasize those important facial feature points The proposed algorithm is evaluated based on the Yale database, the AR database, the ORL database and the YaleB database.

Abstract In this paper a novel face recognition algorithm, based on wavelet kernel non-negative matrix factorization (WKNMF), is proposed. By utilizing features from multi-resolution analysis, the nonlinear mapping capability of kernel nonnegative matrix factorization could be improved by the method proposed. The proposed face recognition method combines wavelet kernel non-negative matrix factorization and RBF network. Extensive experimental results on ORL and YALE face database show that the suggested method possesses much stronger analysis capability than the comparative methods. Compared with PCA, non-negative matrix factorization, kernel PCA and independent component analysis, the proposed face recognition method with WKNMF and RBF achieves over 10 % improvement in recognition accuracy.

Face recognition is one of the essential applications in computer vision, while current face recognition technology is mainly based on 2D images without depth information, which are easily affected by illumination and facial expressions. This paper presents a fast face recognition algorithm combining 3D point cloud face data with deep learning, focusing on key part of face for recognition with an attention mechanism, and reducing the coding space by the sparse loss function. First, an attention mechanism-based convolutional neural network was constructed to extract facial features to avoid expressions and illumination interference. Second, a Siamese network was trained with a sparse loss function to minimize the face coding space and enhance the separability of the face features. With the FRGC face dataset, the experimental results show that the proposed method could achieve the recognition accuracy of 95.33%.
