US Patent 11908233 Normalization of facial images using deep neural networks

A system, method, and apparatus for generating a normalization of a single two-dimensional image of an unconstrained human face. The system receives the single two-dimensional image of the unconstrained human face, generates an undistorted face based on the unconstrained human face by removing perspective distortion from the unconstrained human face via a perspective undistortion network, generates an evenly lit face based on the undistorted face by normalizing lighting of the undistorted face via a lighting translation network, and generates a frontalized and neutralized expression face based on the evenly lit face via an expression neutralization network.
