| Description | Face representation is important for face recognition system. Though most popular face representations are based on uniform grid sampling, some recent face recog-nition systems adopt weighted sampling on the different re-gions of a face. Psychological analysis of visual attention or human eye fixations on human face images may sug-gest some cues for face representation. Human Visual Sys-tem(HVS) gives different weight to different region of human face via space-variant sampling on fovea and non-uniform distribution of fixations. This paper focuses on the prob-lem of simulation of the foveated imaging phenomenon in HVS, and introduction of foveated imaging method into re-construction of face in region of interest (ROI) using differ-ent fixation sources. We compare the effectiveness of actual fixation on reconstruction of face in ROI with uniform, ran-dom distribution fixation as well as fixation generated by ar-tificial model. The experimental results on 100 face images from FRGC [7] data set show that actual fixation positions and model-generated fixation positions reconstruct the face in ROI with considerably better quality. A further analysis on the statistics of fixation positions also shows that the dis-tribution of the fixation points is consistent with the weights of different regions on face images used in some other face recognition systems. 1. |
