Open-set face recognition refers to a scenario in which biometric systems have incomplete knowledge of all existing subjects. Therefore, they are expected to prevent face samples of unregistered subjects from being identified as previously…

Masked Image Modeling (MIM) achieves outstanding success in self-supervised representation learning. Unfortunately, MIM models typically have huge computational burden and slow learning process, which is an inevitable obstacle for their…

The use of facial masks in public spaces has become a social obligation since the wake of the COVID-19 global pandemic and the identification of facial masks can be imperative to ensure public safety. Detection of facial masks in video…

There are many facts affecting human face recognition, such as pose, occlusion, illumination, age, etc. First and foremost are large pose and occlusion problems, which can even result in more than 10% performance degradation. Pose-invariant…

Automatic facial expression recognition (FER) has gained much attention due to its applications in human-computer interaction. Among the approaches to improve FER tasks, this paper focuses on deep architecture with the attention mechanism.…

In this paper, we present an approach based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for facial expression recognition in a difficult setting with severe occlusions. More specifically, our task is to recognize the facial expression of a…

Despite the recent success of convolutional neural networks for computer vision applications, unconstrained face recognition remains a challenge. In this work, we make two contributions to the field. Firstly, we consider the problem of face…

Multi-modal retrieval-augmented generation (MRAG) systems retrieve visual evidence from large image corpora to ground the responses of large multi-modal models, yet the retrieved images frequently contain human faces whose identities…

Inpainting arbitrary missing regions is challenging because learning valid features for various masked regions is nontrivial. Though U-shaped encoder-decoder frameworks have been witnessed to be successful, most of them share a common…

The COVID-19 epidemic has been a significant healthcare challenge in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), COVID-19 infection is transmitted predominately by respiratory droplets generated…

Since the beginning of world-wide COVID-19 pandemic, facial masks have been recommended to limit the spread of the disease. However, these masks hide certain facial attributes. Hence, it has become difficult for existing face recognition…

Human Mesh Recovery (HMR) from a single RGB image is a highly ambiguous problem, as an infinite set of 3D interpretations can explain the 2D observation equally well. Nevertheless, most HMR methods overlook this issue and make a single…

Person re-identification aims at establishing the identity of a pedestrian from a gallery that contains images of multiple people obtained from a multi-camera system. Many challenges such as occlusions, drastic lighting and pose variations…

The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended wearing face masks as one of the most effective measures to prevent COVID-19 transmission. In many countries, it is now mandatory to wear face masks, specially in public places. Since…

Open-set face recognition characterizes a scenario where unknown individuals, unseen during the training and enrollment stages, appear on operation time. This work concentrates on watchlists, an open-set task that is expected to operate at…

In this paper, we address a key limitation of existing 2D face recognition methods: robustness to occlusions. To accomplish this task, we systematically analyzed the impact of facial attributes on the performance of a state-of-the-art face…

The recent COVID-19 pandemic has increased the focus on hygienic and contactless identity verification methods. However, the pandemic led to the wide use of face masks, essential to keep the pandemic under control. The effect of wearing a…

Facial appearance variations due to occlusion has been one of the main challenges for face recognition systems. To facilitate further research in this area, it is necessary and important to have occluded face datasets collected from…

Masked autoencoder (MAE) has attracted unprecedented attention and achieves remarkable performance in many vision tasks. It reconstructs random masked image patches (known as proxy task) during pretraining and learns meaningful semantic…

SARS-CoV-2 has presented direct and indirect challenges to the scientific community. One of the most prominent indirect challenges advents from the mandatory use of face masks in a large number of countries. Face recognition methods…
