In order to make those skilled in the art understand the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the following steps are exemplified in detail.
First, in an exemplary embodiment, the preset face template may be as shown in fig. 2, in which 58 face key points with corresponding serial numbers are included, and the correspondence relationship between the coordinates of the part of face key points in fig. 2 and the serial numbers thereof may refer to table 1:

Wherein, we、he、peRespectively being eyes in face imagesWidth, height and center point coordinates of the region, wm、hm、pmThe width, the height and the center point coordinate of a mouth area in the face image are respectively shown, wherein the eye area is a rectangular area comprising eyes, and the mouth area comprises a rectangular area of mouth.
It should be understood that, referring to fig. 2, the face key points with serial numbers 1-5 are respectively symmetrical to the face key points with serial numbers 6-10, the coordinates of the face key points with serial numbers 6-10 can be determined according to the coordinates of the face key points with serial numbers 1-5, and the coordinates of the face key points with serial numbers 19-26 can be determined according to the face key points with serial numbers 11-18, and so on. Therefore, the correspondence between the coordinates of the key points of the partial face and the serial numbers thereof is listed in table 1.
According to a preset face template, pre-generating an initial key point on a face image, firstly, acquiring a face region in the face image, respectively extracting a binocular region and a mouth region in the face region, respectively determining a length value, a width value and a center point coordinate of the binocular region and the mouth region, and then generating the initial key point according to the length value, the width value and the center point coordinate of the binocular region, the length value, the width value and the center point coordinate of the mouth region and the preset face template.
For example, extracting the binocular region and the mouth region in the face region may be extracting by using a binocular extractor and a mouth extractor provided by OpenCV (Open source computer Vision Library), and accordingly, determining the length value and the width value of the binocular region and the mouth region may be determining the length value and the width value of the binocular region and the mouth extractor, and the center point coordinates of the binocular region and the mouth region may be determined according to the center points of the binocular extractor and the mouth extractor and a preset coordinate system established on the face region.
For example, for a face image, a face region in the face image is extracted, and a binocular region and a mouth region in the face region are extracted by a binocular extractor and a mouth extractor, respectively, then the binocular extractor and the mouth extractor may be used to extract the face region and the mouth regionThe width value and the length value of the extractor are respectively determined as the width value and the length value of the binocular region and the mouth region. Meanwhile, referring to fig. 3, the central points of the binocular extractor and the mouth extractor are determined, and then a preset coordinate system is established with the midpoint of the line connecting the two central points as the origin, so that the central point coordinates of the binocular region and the mouth region can be determined according to the preset coordinate system and the central points of the binocular extractor and the mouth extractor, for example, the width value of the binocular region can be recorded as weThe length of the binocular region is recorded as heAnd the coordinate of the central point of the two-eye area is recorded as peThe width of the mouth region is denoted as wmLength of mouth area is denoted as hmThe coordinate of the center point of the mouth area is recorded as pm
Then, referring to table 1, the initial key points of the face image are calculated according to the widths, lengths and center point coordinates of the binocular region and the mouth region.
Through the method, the initial key points can be pre-generated on the face image according to the preset face template, a large number of training samples are not required to be marked, the calculation cost is saved, and the initial key point positioning result of a single face image can be quickly obtained.
After the initial key points are obtained, the target key points that need to be positioned and updated may be determined, for example, the initial key points that need to be positioned and updated are selected by a user operation, or a coordinate range of the initial key points that need to be positioned and updated, for example, a coordinate range of the eye region, is preset, so as to update the coordinates of the initial key points of the eye region.
Specifically, the embodiments of the present disclosure may specifically select the set of key points according to actual computing power and accuracy requirements. For example, in implementation, the key points in the same region may be numbered sequentially, for example, all the key points in the right eye region shown in fig. 2 are numbered 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18, so that when updating is performed on the target key point, a plurality of adjacent numbered key points may be selected as the key point set. A set of keypoints that includes the target keypoints may also be randomly selected. All the key points (for example, 58 key points in total) on the preset face template can also be used as the key point set.
Further, after determining the set of keypoints, the coordinates of all the keypoints in the set of keypoints can be locally optimized. For example, the local optimization updating of the coordinates of all the key points in the key point set may be to locally optimize the coordinates of each key point in the key point set according to a comprehensive action vector of all pixel points in a neighborhood range where the key point is currently located to the key point.
The neighborhood range can be used to represent the iterative update speed of the key point, and the smaller the neighborhood range is determined to be, the faster the iterative update speed of the key point is, however, it should be noted that the small neighborhood range easily causes the key point positioning result to be locally optimal, which results in low accuracy of the key point positioning, and therefore, the neighborhood range cannot be set too small. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the neighborhood range may be determined by obtaining a response map of the key point, or may be determined according to the accuracy requirement of the user for positioning the key point, and the like.
The comprehensive action vector is used to represent the influence of all pixel points in the current neighborhood range of the key point on the position coordinates of the key point, or, the comprehensive action vector is the position offset of the key point in the current neighborhood range.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the comprehensive action vector of all pixel points in the current neighborhood range of the key point to the key point may be calculated by the following formula:
Figure BDA0001862732950000091
wherein,
Figure BDA0001862732950000092
for the face key point o in the preset neighborhood psioThe resultant vector of action, w, received internallypTo said predetermined neighborhood ΨoThe distances from other key points p except the face key point o to the face key point o are normalized and calculated to obtain a space weight, wherein d (p, o) is the distance from the face key point o to the other key points p, and rhopThe gradient magnitude of the other keypoints p.
In the above formula, the gradient magnitude ρ of other key points ppMay be determined by the following formula:
ρp=cos(θ)[hp,x,hp,y]T(2)
wherein, [ h ]p,x,hp,y]TIs the gradient vector of other key points p, theta is the vector

wherein z is a preset normalization coefficient, xpAnd ypRespectively the abscissa and ordinate, sigma, of other key points pwThe specific calculation method for the standard deviation of the distances from other key points p to the face key point o is similar to the related art method, and is not described herein again.
After the comprehensive action vector is calculated through the formula, the coordinates of the key points can be updated according to the calculated comprehensive action vector, that is, the coordinates corresponding to the comprehensive action vector can be superposed on the basis of the key points of the face, so that the key points of the face move towards the edge direction. When a face keypoint moves to a flat edge, the gradient vector [ h ] is due to the other keypoints p being located on the edgep,x,hp,y]TPerpendicular to the edge, then vector
Figure BDA0001862732950000103
And gradient vector [ hp,x,hp,y]TVertically, cos (θ) will approach to 0, then the displacement of the face key point due to other key points will approach to 0, that is, the synthetic action vector of all pixel points in the neighborhood range where the face key point is currently located to the face key point is 0, and at this time, the distribution of the face feature points will tend to be stable, so that the local optimization process for the face key point can be realized.
After obtaining the locally updated coordinates of each keypoint in the keypoint set, in a possible manner, step S1022 may be to first establish a global topological constraint equation according to the coordinates of all keypoints in the keypoint set before local optimization and the locally optimized coordinates, and then solve the global topological constraint equation by a least square method to obtain the functional relation.
For example, the abscissa and the ordinate of the coordinate position before the local optimization update of all the key points in the key point set may be respectively used as a vector X and a vector Y, the abscissa and the ordinate of the coordinate position after the local optimization update of all the key points in the key point set may be respectively used as a vector X 'and a vector Y', then the vector X and the vector Y are used as independent variables, the vector X 'and the vector Y' are used as dependent variables, a global topological constraint equation is established, and finally the global topological constraint equation is solved by a least square method to obtain a functional relational expression for indicating the coordinate mapping relationship before and after the update of the key points.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the edge contour of the key point of the human face can be limited within a reasonable range by obtaining a global topological constraint equation through the least square solution, so as to implement global optimization updating of the key point of the human face, and further improve the accuracy of positioning the key point of the human face.
It should be understood that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the established global topological constraint equation may be a binary quadratic polynomial, a ternary cubic polynomial, or the like, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present disclosure.
For example, the global topological constraint equation is a binary quadratic polynomial, and the coefficients to be determined of the binary quadratic polynomial are vector a and vector B with dimension 6, respectively, denoted as a ═ a1,a2,...,a6]TAnd B ═ B1,b2,...,b6]TMeanwhile, a set of key points is determined, which includes k key points in the neighborhood range of the target key point. Storing the horizontal and vertical coordinates of the k key points before local optimization updating into a vector X and a vector Y respectively, and recording the X as X ═ X1,x2,...,xk]TAnd Y ═ Y1,y2,...,yk]TAnd storing the horizontal and vertical coordinates of the k key points after local optimization updating into a vector X ' and a vector Y ', and recording the horizontal and vertical coordinates as X ' ═ X1',x2',...,xk']TAnd Y ═ Y1',y2',...,yk']TThen, taking the vector X and the vector Y as independent variables, and taking the vector X 'and the vector Y' as dependent variables, a global topological constraint equation can be obtained:
X'=a1+a2X+a3Y+a4X·Y+a5X2+a6Y2(4)
Y'=b1+b2X+b3Y+b4X·Y+b5X2+b6Y2(5)
finally, the coefficient vector a to be determined in (4) and equation (5) [ a ] can be determined by the least square method1,a2,a3,a4,a5,a6]Sum vector B ═ B1,b2,b3,b4,b5,b6]And solving to obtain a functional relation for carrying out global optimization updating on the target key points.
It should be noted that, when the global topological constraint equation is established, the locally optimized coordinate of the key point may be a coordinate of the key point after performing one-time local optimization, or a coordinate of the key point after performing multiple times of local optimization, which is not limited in this embodiment of the disclosure. However, it should be understood that if the coordinates of the keypoint after local optimization are the coordinates of the keypoint after multiple local optimizations, then the seat before the keypoint local optimization should be the coordinates of the keypoint before the first local optimization when the topological constraint equation is established.
Further, in the example that the global topological constraint equation is formulas (4) and (5), when the vector a and the vector B are known, the abscissa of the target key point is taken as X, the ordinate is taken as Y, the formulas (4) and (5) are substituted, and the obtained vector X 'and vector Y' are the coordinate positions after global optimization updating of the target key point, so that the inaccuracy of the local optimization result of the face key point is avoided, and the accuracy of face key point positioning is further ensured.
The above update operation is an explanation of a one-time update process of the target key point, and in specific implementation, when the sum of squares of errors of the coordinates before the local optimization of the target key point and the coordinates after the global optimization of the target key point is not less than the preset threshold, the update operation of the target key point may be executed again, and when the sum of squares of errors of the coordinates before the local optimization of the target key point and the coordinates after the global optimization of the target key point is less than the preset threshold, the update of the target key point is stopped.
The sum of the squares of the errors of the coordinates before the local optimization of the target key point and the coordinates after the global optimization may be obtained by summing the differences between the coordinates before the local optimization of the target key point and the coordinates after the global optimization after performing the square calculation, and the specific calculation method is similar to the method for calculating the sum of the squares of the errors in the related art and is not described herein again.
The preset threshold may be set in advance by a user according to a requirement for accuracy of the positioning result of the key point, and the like, which is not limited by the present disclosure. For example, the preset threshold may be set to 0.3, and when the sum of squared errors of the updated coordinate positions is less than 0.3, the update of the target keypoints is stopped, otherwise, the update operation of the target keypoints is performed again.
In addition, when the update operation on the target key point is executed again, the coordinates of other key points in the key point set corresponding to the key point, except for the target key point, may be the coordinates after the last local optimization. However, it should be understood that if the global optimization update was performed on other keypoints in the set of keypoints during the last update process, the coordinates of the other keypoints in the set of keypoints may be the coordinates of the other keypoints that were updated by the last global optimization at the time of updating the target keypoint.

Step S405, establishing a functional relation based on the coordinates before and after each key point in the key point set is locally updated, and performing global optimization on the target key point according to the functional relation.
The process of the local optimization update and the global optimization update may specifically refer to the above detailed description, and will not be described herein again.
And step S406, taking the coordinates after the global optimization of the target key point as the result of the current coordinate updating of the target key point.
Step S407, determining whether the sum of squares of errors of the coordinates before the target key point local optimization and the coordinates after the target key point global optimization is less than a preset threshold.
