• Abstract: Face recognition can benefit from the utilization of depth data captured using low-cost cameras, in particular for presentation attack detection purposes. Depth video output from these capture devices can however contain defects such as holes or general depth inaccuracies. This work proposes a deep learning face depth enhancement method in this context of facial biometrics, which adds a security aspect to the topic. U-Net-like architectures are utilized, and the networks are compared against hand-crafted enhancer types, as well as a similar depth enhancer network from related work trained for an adjacent application scenario. All tested enhancer types exclusively use depth data as input, which differs from methods that enhance depth based on additional input data such as visible light color images. Synthetic face depth ground truth images and degraded forms thereof are created with help of PRNet, to train multiple deep learning enhancer models with different network sizes and training configurations. Evaluations are carried out on the synthetic data, on Kinect v1 images from the KinectFaceDB, and on in-house RealSense D435 images. These evaluations include an assessment of the falsification for occluded face depth input, which is relevant to biometric security. The proposed deep learning enhancers yield noticeably better results than the tested preexisting enhancers, without overly falsifying depth data when non-face input is provided, and are shown to reduce the error of a simple landmark-based PAD method.

  We present a framework that leverages polarization imaging to improve inaccurate depth measurements from various depth sensors. Our method first adopts a learning-based strategy where a neural network is trained to estimate a dense and complete depth map from polarization data and a sensor depth map from different sensors. To further improve the performance, we propose a Polarization Prompt Fusion Tuning (PPFT) strategy to effectively utilize RGB-based models pre-trained on large-scale datasets.

The raw face stereo images along with the location in the image from which the face is extracted allow the proposed CNN to improve the recognition task. We demonstrate that the suggested method outperforms both single-image and explicit depth based methods on large-scale benchmarks.
