Description
Summary:Aiming at the problem that face detectors with complex deep neural structures are difficult to deploy in the resource-constrained edge computing environment,to reduce the resource consumption while maintain the accuracy in complex scenes such as multi-scale face changes,occlusion,blur,and illumination,SDPN(multi-scale aware dual path network) for face detection was proposed.The Face-ResNet (face residual neural network) was improved,and a dual path shallow feature extractor was used to understand the multi-scale information of the image through parallel branches.Then the deep and shallow feature fusion module,a combination of the underlying image information and the high-level semantic feature,was used in conjunction with the multi-scale awareness training strategy to supervise the multi-branch learning discriminating features.The experimental results show that SDPN can extract more diversified features,which effectively improve the accuracy and robustness of face detection while maintaining the efficiency of the model and low inference delay.
