Abstract

Face recognition of a face, to determine whether the face correlates with an enrolled face, may include generating a personalized three-dimensional (3D) face model based on a two-dimensional (2D) input image of the face, acquiring 3D shape information and a normalized 2D input image of the face based on the personalized 3D face model, generating feature information based on the 3D shape information and pixel color values of the normalized 2D input image, and comparing the feature information with feature information associated with the enrolled face. The feature information may include first and second feature information generated based on applying first and second deep neural network models to the pixel color values of the normalized 2D input image and the 3D shape information, respectively. The personalized 3D face model may be generated based on transforming a generic 3D face model based on landmarks detected in the 2D input image.
