Abstract

This paper presents a method for face affine registration which only needs a single template, such as using a person's front face to match his side face. First, in order to be robust to outliers caused by facial affine deformations, an improved color feature is introduced to balance the color similarity and shape mismatch rate between the template face image and target face image, and then the face rough search algorithm is proposed based on the color feature. Next, the affine transformation obtained by face rough search algorithm is used as an initial constraint to establish the face shape fine registration algorithm based on the previous affine constraints. Our algorithm succeΒfully solves the problem that face shape is difficult to register in the presence of rotation, scale transformation and noise interference. Experimental results demonstrate that the robustneΒ and accuracy of our algorithm are greatly improved compared with the conventional face affine registration algorithms.
