Face recognition system for face recognition in unlabeled videos with domain adversarial learning and knowledge distillation

摘要

A face recognition system is provided that includes a device configured to capture a video sequence formed from a set of unlabeled testing video frames. The system includes a processor configured to pre-train a face recognition engine formed from reference CNNs on a still image domain that includes labeled training still image frames of faces. The processor adapts the face recognition engine to a video domain to form an adapted engine, by applying non-reference CNNs to domains including the still image and video domains and a degraded image domain. The degraded image domain includes labeled synthetically degraded versions of the frames included in the still image domain. The video domain includes random unlabeled training video frames. The processor recognizes, using the adapted engine, identities of persons corresponding to at least one face in the video sequence to obtain a set of identities. A display device displays the set of identities.
