Despite significant advances in Deep Face Recognition (DFR) systems, introducing new DFRs under specific constraints such as varying pose still remains a big challenge. Most particularly, due to the 3D nature of a human head, facial…
Deep learning advanced face recognition to an unprecedented accuracy. However, understanding how local parts of the face affect the overall recognition performance is still mostly unclear. Among others, face swap has been experimented to…
Faces manifest large variations in many aspects, such as identity, expression, pose, and face styling. Therefore, it is a great challenge to disentangle and extract these characteristics from facial images, especially in an unsupervised…
Diffusion models have recently shown strong progress in generative tasks, offering a more stable alternative to GAN-based approaches for makeup transfer. Existing methods often suffer from limited datasets, poor disentanglement between…
Due to their convenience and high accuracy, face recognition systems are widely employed in governmental and personal security applications to automatically recognise individuals. Despite recent advances, face recognition systems have shown…
As billions of personal data being shared through social media and network, the data privacy and security have drawn an increasing attention. Several attempts have been made to alleviate the leakage of identity information from face photos,…
Images of morphed faces pose a serious threat to face recognition--based security systems, as they can be used to illegally verify the identity of multiple people with a single morphed image. Modern detection algorithms learn to identify…
We present a new facial recognition system, capable of identifying a person, provided their likeness has been previously stored in the system, in real time. The system is based on storing and comparing facial embeddings of the subject, and…
