Feature representations play a crucial role in modern face recognition systems. Most hand-crafted image descriptors usually provide low-level information. In this paper, we propose a novel feature learning method based on deep neural networks to obtain high-level, hierarchical representations for face verification. Learning proceeds in two phases. In the pre-training phase, we train Restricted Boltzmann Machine(RBM) networks for each modular region in the image separately. In the fine-tuning phase, in order to develop good discriminative ability, we stack the RBM networks of each region in deep architecture and combine deep learning with side information constraints in the whole image scale. Finally, we formulate the proposed method as an appropriate optimization problem and adopt gradient descent algorithm to get the optimal solution. We evaluate our method on the LFW dataset. Representations learned from the networks achieve comparable performance (93.11%) to the state-of-art method.
