Deep Restoration Technology of Degraded Portraits Based on GFP for Video Investigation Application
In video investigation work,high-quality surveillance video portraits can provide a lot of effective information about criminal suspects,help investigators determine the direction of investigation,narrow the scope of investigation,and lock the criminal suspect.However,it is often encountered that the quality of video face images are too low to be recognized and facial image depth restoration methods such as GFP are only suitable for the restoration of a single facial image.To this end,this paper proposes a video facial image restoration technology based on the GFP,which extends the GFP method to the application of video investigation,facilitates the timely locking of criminal suspects in the video investigation work,and improves the efficiency of solving cases.Firstly,pre-processing operations such as video framing,facial image crop alignment,and oblique perspective correction are performed on the surveillance video.Then the GFP method is used to restore the depth of the pre-processed facial image.Finally,the restored face images through the reverse processing such as facial image registration,image restoration and video synthesis to generate high-quality facial image video.This paper verifies the effectiveness of portrait restoration technology based on GFP through simulation experiment,practical application and comparison experiment.Among them,simulation experiment and practical application were carried out on a large number of pre-processed real degraded face images and simulated degraded face images.The results show that the GFP is superior to other facial image depth restoration methods in terms of subjective visual effects and objective quantitative index such as FID,PSFR,SSIM,and NIQE.And by using YTF facial image video data set for comparison experiment,the experimental results show that the method of adding pre-processing and reverse processing is superior to the traditional GFP method.The video portrait restoration technology based on GFP with pre-processing and inverse processing proposed in this paper has better restoration effect for low-quality video portraits.
