摘要
Near infrared-visible(NIR-VIS)face recognition is to match an NIR face image to a VIS image.The main challenges of NIR-VIS face recognition are the gap caused by cross-modality and the lack of sufficient paired NIR-VIS face images to train models.This paper focuses on the generation of paired NIR-VIS face images and proposes a dual variational generator based on ResNeSt(RS-DVG).RS-DVG can generate a large number of paired NIR-VIS face images from noise,and these generated NIR-VIS face images can be used as the training set together with the real NIR-VIS face images.In addition,a triplet loss function is introduced and a novel triplet selection method is proposed specifically for the training of the current face recognition model,which maximizes the inter-class distance and minimizes the intra-class distance in the input face images.The method proposed in this paper was evaluated on the datasets CASIA NIR-VIS 2.0 and BUAA-VisNir,and relatively good results were obtained.
