A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11922707B2) discloses a method for training a face detection model that involves acquiring a training face image, performing three-dimensional reconstruction based on a preset model, generating a training UV coordinate map, and inputting the image into a semantic segmentation network. The method includes calculating a loss rate, judging gradient conditions, and performing gradient descent on network parameters. The patent also covers a method for detecting face key points using a pre-trained face detection model and a UV template image. Additionally, the patent describes a device and a computer-readable storage medium for executing the training and detection methods.

Furthermore, the patent details the process of three-dimensional reconstruction using principal component analysis and eigenvalue matrices. It also includes methods for aligning and preprocessing three-dimensional face models before analysis. The patent further discloses a method for generating a training UV coordinate map based on three-dimensional face models and a spherical surface projection technique. The patent also covers the iterative optimization process for eigenvalue matrices and projection parameters using a stochastic gradient descent method. Overall, the patent provides a comprehensive approach to training face detection models and detecting face key points using advanced techniques and algorithms, aiming to enhance accuracy and efficiency in facial recognition technology.
