Speeding up vectorized eye-tracking algorithm in numpy

问题

I'm trying to implement Fabian Timm's eye-tracking algorithm [http://www.inb.uni-luebeck.de/publikationen/pdfs/TiBa11b.pdf] (found here: [http://thume.ca/projects/2012/11/04/simple-accurate-eye-center-tracking-in-opencv/]) in numpy and OpenCV and I've hit a snag. I think I've vectorized my implementation decently enough, but it's still not fast enough to run in real time and it doesn't detect pupils with as much accuracy as I had hoped. This is my first time using numpy, so I'm not sure what I've done wrong.

def find_pupil(eye):
    eye_len = np.arange(eye.shape[0])
    xx,yy = np.meshgrid(eye_len,eye_len) #coordinates
    XX,YY = np.meshgrid(xx.ravel(),yy.ravel()) #all distance vectors
    Dx,Dy = [YY-XX, YY-XX] #y2-y1, x2-x1 -- simpler this way because YY = XXT
    Dlen = np.sqrt(Dx**2+Dy**2)
    Dx,Dy = [Dx/Dlen, Dy/Dlen] #normalized

    Gx,Gy = np.gradient(eye)
    Gmagn = np.sqrt(Gx**2+Gy**2)

    Gx,Gy = [Gx/Gmagn,Gy/Gmagn] #normalized
    GX,GY = np.meshgrid(Gx.ravel(),Gy.ravel())

    X = (GX*Dx+GY*Dy)**2
    eye = cv2.bitwise_not(cv2.GaussianBlur(eye,(5,5),0.005*eye.shape[1])) #inverting and blurring eye for use as w
    eyem = np.repeat(eye.ravel()[np.newaxis,:],eye.size,0)
    C = (np.nansum(eyem*X, axis=0)/eye.size).reshape(eye.shape)

    return np.unravel_index(C.argmax(), C.shape)

and the rest of the code:

def find_eyes(face):
    left_x, left_y = [int(floor(0.5 * face.shape[0])), int(floor(0.2 * face.shape[1]))]
    right_x, right_y = [int(floor(0.1 * face.shape[0])), int(floor(0.2 * face.shape[1]))]
    area = int(floor(0.2 * face.shape[0]))
    left_eye = (left_x, left_y, area, area)
    right_eye = (right_x, right_y, area, area)

    return [left_eye,right_eye]



faceCascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier("haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml")
video_capture = cv2.VideoCapture(0)

while True:
    # Capture frame-by-frame
    ret, frame = video_capture.read()

    gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

    faces = faceCascade.detectMultiScale(
        gray,
        scaleFactor=1.1,
        minNeighbors=5,
        minSize=(30, 30),
        flags=cv2.CASCADE_SCALE_IMAGE
    )

    # Draw a rectangle around the faces
    for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
        cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
        roi_gray = gray[y:y+h, x:x+w]
        roi_color = frame[y:y+h, x:x+w]
        eyes = find_eyes(roi_gray)
        for (ex,ey,ew,eh) in eyes:
            eye_gray = roi_gray[ey:ey+eh,ex:ex+ew]
            eye_color = roi_color[ey:ey+eh,ex:ex+ew]
            cv2.rectangle(roi_color,(ex,ey),(ex+ew,ey+eh),(255,0,0),2)
            px,py = find_pupil(eye_gray)
            cv2.rectangle(eye_color,(px,py),(px+1,py+1),(255,0,0),2)

    # Display the resulting frame
    cv2.imshow('Video', frame)

    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
        break

# When everything is done, release the capture
video_capture.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

You can perform many of those operations that save replicated elements and then perform some mathematical opertaions by directly performing the mathematical operatrions after creating singleton dimensions that would allow NumPy broadcasting. Thus, there would be two benefits - On the fly operations to save workspace memory and performance boost. Also, at the end, we can replace the nansum calculation with a simplified version. Thus, with all of that philosophy in mind, here's one modified approach -

def find_pupil_v2(face, x, y, w, h):    
    eye = face[x:x+w,y:y+h]
    eye_len = np.arange(eye.shape[0])

    N = eye_len.size**2
    eye_len_diff = eye_len[:,None] - eye_len
    Dlen = np.sqrt(2*((eye_len_diff)**2))
    Dxy0 = eye_len_diff/Dlen 

    Gx0,Gy0 = np.gradient(eye)
    Gmagn = np.sqrt(Gx0**2+Gy0**2)
    Gx,Gy = [Gx0/Gmagn,Gy0/Gmagn] #normalized

    B0 = Gy[:,:,None]*Dxy0[:,None,:]
    C0 = Gx[:,None,:]*Dxy0
    X = ((C0.transpose(1,0,2)[:,None,:,:]+B0[:,:,None,:]).reshape(N,N))**2

    eye1 = cv2.bitwise_not(cv2.GaussianBlur(eye,(5,5),0.005*eye.shape[1]))
    C = (np.nansum(X,0)*eye1.ravel()/eye1.size).reshape(eye1.shape)

    return np.unravel_index(C.argmax(), C.shape)

~~There's one repeat still left in it at Dxy. It might be possible to avoid that step and Dxy0 could be fed directly into the step that uses Dxy to give us X, but I haven't worked through it.~~ Everything's converted to broadcasting based!

Runtime test and output verification -

In [539]: # Inputs with random elements
     ...: face = np.random.randint(0,10,(256,256)).astype('uint8')
     ...: x = 40
     ...: y = 60
     ...: w = 64
     ...: h = 64
     ...: 

In [540]: find_pupil(face,x,y,w,h)
Out[540]: (32, 63)

In [541]: find_pupil_v2(face,x,y,w,h)
Out[541]: (32, 63)

In [542]: %timeit find_pupil(face,x,y,w,h)
1 loops, best of 3: 4.15 s per loop

In [543]: %timeit find_pupil_v2(face,x,y,w,h)
1 loops, best of 3: 529 ms per loop

It seems we are getting close to 8x speedup!
