The advance of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) enables realistic face image synthesis. However, synthesizing face images that preserve facial identity as well as have high diversity within each identity remains challenging. To…

Face Anti-Spoofing (FAS) algorithms, designed to secure face recognition systems against spoofing, struggle with limited dataset diversity, impairing their ability to handle unseen visual domains and spoofing methods. We introduce the…

In the past decades, the excessive use of the last-generation GAN (Generative Adversarial Networks) models in computer vision has enabled the creation of artificial face images that are visually indistinguishable from genuine ones. These…

Active Appearance Models (AAMs) are a well-established technique for fitting deformable models to images, but they are limited by linear appearance assumptions and can struggle with complex variations. In this paper, we explore if the AAM…

Facial image manipulation is a generation task where the output face is shifted towards an intended target direction in terms of facial attribute and styles. Recent works have achieved great success in various editing techniques such as…

Since it is difficult to collect face images of the same subject over a long range of age span, most existing face aging methods resort to unpaired datasets to learn age mappings. However, the matching ambiguity between young and aged face…

Through a large-scale study over diverse face images, we show that facial attribute editing using modern generative AI models can severely degrade automated face recognition systems. This degradation persists even with identity-preserving…

Most existing text-to-image synthesis tasks are static single-turn generation, based on pre-defined textual descriptions of images. To explore more practical and interactive real-life applications, we introduce a new task - Interactive…

Facial composites are graphical representations of an eyewitness's memory of a face. Many digital systems are available for the creation of such composites but are either unable to reproduce features unless previously designed or do not…

Although manipulating facial attributes by Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) has been remarkably successful recently, there are still some challenges in explicit control of features such as pose, expression, lighting, etc. Recent…
