In this paper, we propose a novel face alignment method using single deep
network (SDN) on existing limited training data. Rather than using a
max-pooling layer followed one convolutional layer in typical convolutional
neural networks (CNN), SDN adopts a stack of 3 layer groups instead. Each group
layer contains two convolutional layers and a max-pooling layer, which can
extract the features hierarchically. Moreover, an effective data augmentation
strategy and corresponding training skills are also proposed to over-come the
lack of training images on COFW and 300-W da-tasets. The experiment results
show that our method outper-forms state-of-the-art methods in both detection
accuracy and speed.
