Abstract

A method and a system for exacting face features from data of face images have been disclosed. The system may comprise: A first feature extraction unit configured to filter the data of face images into a first plurality of channels of feature maps with a first dimension and down-sample the feature maps into a second dimension of feature maps; a second feature extraction unit configured to filter the second dimension of feature maps into a second plurality of channels of feature maps with a second dimension, and to down-sample the second plurality of channels feature maps into a third dimension of feature maps; and a third feature extraction unit configured to filter the third dimension of feature maps so as to further reduce high responses outside the face region such that reduce intra-identity variances of face images, while maintain discrimination between identities of the face images.
