Abstract

An image recognition method is provided, which is related to a technical field of artificial intelligence, and in particular, to a technical field of image processing. An implementation includes: performing five-sense-organ recognition on a preprocessed human face image and marking positions of the human facial five sense organs in the human face image, to obtain the marked human face image; determining human face images at multiple scales of the marked human face image, inputting the human face images of multiple scales into a backbone network model, and performing feature extraction, to obtain a wrinkle feature of the human face image at each of the multiple scales; and fusing the wrinkle feature at each scale that is located in a same area of the human face image, to obtain a wrinkle recognition result of the human face image.

Claims (43)

1. An image recognition method, comprising:

performing five-sense-organ recognition on a preprocessed human face image and marking positions of the human facial five sense organs in the human face image, to obtain a marked human face image;

determining human face images at multiple scales of the marked human face image, inputting the human face images of multiple scales into a backbone network model, and performing feature extraction, to obtain a wrinkle feature of the human face image at each of the multiple scales; and

fusing the wrinkle feature at each scale that is located in a same area of the human face image, to obtain a wrinkle recognition result of the human face image.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

performing homogenization processing on pixels of the human face image, to obtain a homogenized human face image; and

performing normalization processing on pixel variances of the homogenized human face image, to obtain the preprocessed human face image.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the inputting the marked human face image into a backbone network model and performing feature extraction, to obtain wrinkle features of the human face image at different scales, comprises:

performing multi-scale stretching and retraction processing on the marked human face image, to obtain the human face images of multiple scales; and

inputting the human face images of multiple scales into the backbone network model, to obtain a wrinkle feature of the human face image at each of the multiple scales.

4. The method according to claim 3 , further comprising:

inputting the human face images of multiple scales into the backbone network model, to obtain a recognition result of areas of the human facial five sense organs.

5. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the fusing the wrinkle features at different scales that are located in a same area of the human face image, to obtain a wrinkle recognition result of the human face image, comprises:

ignoring the wrinkle recognition result of the human face image in a case where a face area corresponding to the wrinkle recognition result of the human face image is an area of the five sense organs that has no wrinkle.

6. An image recognition apparatus, comprising:

at least one processor; and

a memory communicatively connected to the at least one processor, wherein

the memory stores instructions executable by the at least one processor, the instructions are executed by the at least one processor to enable the at least one processor to:
