Abstract

A facial image screening method is provided in the present disclosure. The facial image screening method includes the following steps: tracking a plurality of feature points of at least one facial image; analyzing each feature point to acquire a region information corresponding to each feature point, wherein the region information comprises an image quality information, a face pose information, and a blocking degree information; scoring the image quality information to obtain a first arbitration score; scoring the face pose information to obtain a second arbitration score; scoring the blocking degree information to obtain a third arbitration score; generating a comprehensive quality score according to the first arbitration score, the second arbitration score, and the third arbitration; and taking the plurality of feature points of the facial image as targets to be compared with captured features of a plurality of specific persons when the comprehensive quality score exceeds a threshold value. The present disclosure has an advantage that a facial image suitable for face comparison may be selected so as to improve the recognition rate of one-to-one or one-to-many comparison.
