Face Image Relighting using Locally Constrained Global Optimization
نویسندگان
چکیده
A face image relighting method using locally constrained global optimization is presented in this paper. Based on the empirical fact that common radiance environments are locally homogeneous, we propose to use an optimization based solution in which local linear adjustments are performed on overlapping windows throughout the input image. As such, local textures and global smoothness of the input image can be preserved simultaneously when applying the illumination transformation. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method comparing to some previous approaches.

Single Reference Image based Scene Relighting via Material Guided Filtering
Image relighting is to change the illumination of an image to a target illumination effect without known the original scene geometry, material information and illumination condition. We propose a novel outdoor scene relighting method, which needs only a single reference image and is based on material constrained layer decomposition. Firstly, the material map is extracted from the input image. T...
متن کاملFace recognition under generic illumination based on harmonic relighting
The performances of the current face recognition systems suffer heavily from the variations in lighting. To deal with this problem, this paper presents an illumination normalization approach by relighting face images to a canonical illumination based on the harmonic images model. Benefiting from the observations that human faces share similar shape, and the albedos of the face surfaces are quas...

In this paper, we propose a robust face relighting technique by using spherical space properties. The proposed method is done for reducing the illumination effects on face recognition. Given a single 2D face image, we relight the face object by extracting the nine spherical harmonic bases and the face spherical illumination coefficients. First, an internal training illumination database is gene...
متن کاملFace Relighting with Radiance Environment Maps
A radiance environment map pre-integrates a constant surface reflectance with the lighting environment. It has been used to generate photo-realistic rendering at interactive speed. However, one of its limitations is that each radiance environment map can only render the object which has the same surface reflectance as what it integrates. In this paper, we present a ratio-image based technique t...
متن کاملVirtual face image generation for illumination and pose insensitive face recognition
Face recognition has attracted much attention in the past decades for its wide potential applications. Much progress has been made in the past few years. However, specialized evaluation of the state-of-the-art of both academic algorithms and commercial systems illustrates that the performance of most current recognition technologies degrades significantly due to the variations of illumination a...
