Abstract
There is disclosed a system and method of performing facial recognition from RGB image data. The method includes generating a lower-resolution image from the RGB image data, performing a convolution of the lower-resolution image data to derive a probability map identifying probable facial regions and a probable non-facial regions, and performing a first deconvolution on the lower-resolution image using a bilinear interpolation layer to derive a set of coarse facial segments. The method further includes performing a second deconvolution on the lower-resolution image using a series of unpooling, deconvolution, and rectification layers to derive a set of fine facial segments, concatenating the set of coarse facial segments to the set of fine facial segments to create an image matrix made up of a set of facial segments, and generating a binary facial mask identifying probable facial regions and probable non-facial regions from the image matrix.
