text: We propose Image-Semantic-Transformation-Reconstruction-Circle(ISTRC) model, a novel and powerful method using facenet's Euclidean latent space to understand the images. As the name suggests, ISTRC construct the circle, able to perfectly reconstruct images. One powerful Euclidean latent space embedded in ISTRC is FaceNet's last layer with the power of distinguishing and understanding images. Our model will reconstruct the images and manipulate Euclidean latent vectors to achieve semantic transformations and semantic images arthimetic calculations. In this paper, we show that ISTRC performs 10 high-level semantic transformations like "Male and female","add smile","open mouth", "deduct beard or add mustache", "bigger smaller nose", "make older and younger", "bigger lips", "bigger eyes", "bigger smaller mouths" and "more attractive". It just takes 3 hours(GTX 1080) to train the models of 10 semantic transformations.
  @cite_12: Despite significant recent advances in the field of face recognition [10, 14, 15, 17], implementing face verification and recognition efficiently at scale presents serious challenges to current approaches. In this paper we present a system, called FaceNet, that directly learns a mapping from face images to a compact Euclidean space where distances directly correspond to a measure of face similarity. Once this space has been produced, tasks such as face recognition, verification and clustering can be easily implemented using standard techniques with FaceNet embeddings as feature vectors.
summary: FaceNet @cite_12 can directly learn the mapping from images to their latent vector in Euclidean space end-to-end. It is used for face verification since we could compare the similarity between two face images by their Euclidean distances in this Euclidean space. In this paper, we directly use the pre-trained FaceNet model for cropped CelebA images.
