Abstract

Face appearance descriptions are semantic meaningful characteristics and beneficial for face recognition and retrieval. In this paper, we propose a facial appearance description method which can describe the whole face, chin, eyebrow, eye, nose and mouth type separately. The description is obtained through facial landmarks computation and geometry shape estimation of each part. Based on this method, semantic search of face images can be achieved on face dataset. What’s more, the large scale dataset can be categorized though the facial appearance description before recognition which can help to improve the recognition accuracy and efficiency.
