Problems solved by technology

The main advantage of the regression-based line of sight estimation method is that it is simple and easy to implement under the premise of accurate positioning of the human eye area, but the disadvantage is that it is difficult for the existing regression methods to describe the mapping relationship between human eye features and line of sight very accurately.

Embodiment Construction

[0057] According to the method of the present invention, at first utilize Matlab or C language to write the training model of depth regression network; Then import the training sample that gathers and train the depth regression network parameter; Then extract gradient direction histogram feature to the image that gathers, as source data Input to the trained deep regression network for processing; get the estimated line of sight direction. The method of the present invention can be used in the problem of eye sight estimation in natural scenes.

[0058] A line-of-sight estimation method based on deep regression network, which comprises the following steps:

[0059] Step 1: Collect N eye images containing different sight lines (see figure 1 ), and record the corresponding line-of-sight direction when capturing each image the y n The first dimension of represents the horizontal direction, the second dimension represents the vertical direction, and the subscript n represents t...

Abstract

This patent proposes a line-of-sight estimation method based on a deep regression network, which belongs to the field of computer vision and machine learning. The main idea of ​​this method is to establish the mapping relationship between the input image features and the line of sight through a deep regression network. First, extract the gradient direction histogram feature of the eye image area; then, establish a 5-layer depth regression model to fit the mapping relationship between the input image features and the output line of sight direction; after that, use the gradient descent method to optimize the depth regression model. parameters; finally, for the eye image to be estimated, use the learned depth model to estimate the line of sight direction.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of computer vision, relates to a deep learning method, mainly solves visual mapping problems such as line of sight estimation and line of sight tracking, and can be applied to fields such as safe driving of automobiles and region of interest detection. Background technique [0002] In computer vision, gaze estimation refers to locating the human eye area based on the input facial image and automatically estimating the gaze direction according to the position of the eyeball. Existing gaze estimation methods include two categories: (1) geometry-based methods and (2) regression-based methods. See references for details: Takahiro Ishikawa, Simon Baker, Iain Matthews, and Takeo Kanade, Passive Driver Gaze Tracking with Active Appearance Models, tech.report CMU-RI-TR-04-08, 2004. [0003] The gaze estimation method based on geometry mainly calculates the gaze direction by locating the center of the pupil, the fea...
