People prefer to distinguish the similarity of faces in the field of face retrieval and verification by describing the “semantics” or “concept” of object features, which cannot be satisfied by traditional image retrieval technology. Therefore, this paper presents a facial semantic extraction algorithm (IAFSGD) that is based on axiomatic fuzzy sets (AFS) and information granules. First, the face images are corrected to detect the critical points where facial features are extracted; then, the samples of facial features are clustered to construct the class center; the information granules of each class are obtained under the AFS framework; and then the facial images are reclassified through the information granules, to obtain the final clustering results and interpretable facial semantic description; finally, the efficacy of this algorithm is demonstrated on such facial datasets as Multi-PIE, AR, and FEI. Experimental results show that compared with FCM, CAN, FCMGD, AFSGD, and KTM, the semantic extraction method proposed in this paper can obtain clustering results closer to human perception and that the results are of good interpretability.
