摘要:

准确的瞳孔定位广泛应用于疲劳监控、注意力分析、凝视跟踪等领域.当前,对于瞳孔定位的研究,还存在两个难点问题:(1)瞳孔检测的精准率受到图像分辨率、照明、头部姿态的影响,因而自然条件下的定位精准度较低;(2)虹膜颜色影响定位精准率,但当前对于不同虹膜颜色的瞳孔定位方法的研究还不完善.针对以上问题,提出一种新的适用于包含全脸图像的瞳孔定位方法.所提方法无需训练,可直接用于瞳孔定位任务.方法核心是将表示局部径向对称性的自相似性分数,与根据瞳孔和周围区域之间的梯度信息计算得到的眼部区域梯度辐射分数相结合,取联合分数峰值坐标为瞳孔中心.在BioID数据集和GI4E数据集上评估本方法.在归一化误差e0.05的情况下,准确率分别为94.67% (BioID),97.09% (GI4E),在e0.10的情况下,准确率分别为99.47% (BioID),99.51% (GI4E).所提方法在由低分辨率深色虹膜的人脸图像组成的自制数据集上准确率为98.66% (e0.05)和100% (e0.10),表明所提方法对于虹膜颜色有较好的鲁棒性.

Abstract:

Accurate pupil localization is widely used in fatigue monitoring,attention analysis,gaze tracking,and other fields. Currently,there are two difficult problems in the research of pupil localization. (1) The accuracy of pupil detection is affected by image resolution,illuminance,and head pose,and thus the accuracy of localization under natural conditions is relatively low.(2) Iris color affects the accuracy of localization,but the current research on pupil localization methods for different iris colors is not perfect. To address these two problems,this study proposes a new pupil localization method for whole?face images. The proposed method requires no training and is directly used for pupil localization tasks. The core of the method is to combine the self?similarity score representing the local radial symmetry,with the gradient radiation score of the eye area calculated based on the gradient information between the pupil and the surrounding area,then take the peak coordinate of the joint score as the pupil center. The approach was on the BioID,GI4E dataset. At a normalized error of e0.05,the accuracy is 94.67% (BioID) and 97.09% (GI4E),respectively. At a normalized error of e0.10,the accuracy is 99.47% (BioID) and 99.51% (GI4E) ,respectively. The proposed approach on the self?made dataset composed of low?resolution dark iris facial images yields an accuracy of 98.66% (e0.05) and 100% (e0.10),indicating that the proposed approach has preferable robustness to iris color.

Key words: pupil localization, image processing, self?similarity, image gradient, human factors engineering
