• Abstract summary: We propose a robust neural network enabled facial landmark detection, namely Deep Multi-Spectral Learning (DMSL) DMSL consists of two sub-models, i.e. face boundary detection, and landmark coordinates detection. Experiment conducted on Eurecom's visible and thermal paired database shows the superior performance of DMSL over the state-of-the-art for thermal facial landmark detection.

• Abstract: Thermal face image analysis is favorable for certain circumstances. For example, illumination-sensitive applications, like nighttime surveillance; and privacy-preserving demanded access control. However, the inadequate study on thermal face image analysis calls for attention in responding to the industry requirements. Detecting facial landmark points are important for many face analysis tasks, such as face recognition, 3D face reconstruction, and face expression recognition. In this paper, we propose a robust neural network enabled facial landmark detection, namely Deep Multi-Spectral Learning (DMSL). Briefly, DMSL consists of two sub-models, i.e. face boundary detection, and landmark coordinates detection. Such an architecture demonstrates the capability of detecting the facial landmarks on both visible and thermal images. Particularly, the proposed DMSL model is robust in facial landmark detection where the face is partially occluded, or facing different directions. The experiment conducted on Eurecom's visible and thermal paired database shows the superior performance of DMSL over the state-of-the-art for thermal facial landmark detection. In addition to that, we have annotated a thermal face dataset with their respective facial landmark for the purpose of experimentation.

  A subclass of the face detection problem that has recently gained increasing attention is occluded face detection. Three years on since the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is still a complete lack of evidence regarding how well existing face detection algorithms perform on masked faces. This article first offers a brief review of state-of-the-art face detectors and detectors made for the masked face problem, along with a review of the existing masked face datasets. We evaluate and compare the performances of a well-representative set of face detectors at masked face detection and conclude with a discussion on the possible contributing factors to
