• Abstract: Despite the great success achieved by deep learning methods in face recognition, severe performance drops are observed for large pose variations in unconstrained environments (e.g., in cases of surveillance and photo-tagging). To address it, current methods either deploy pose-specific models or frontalize faces by additional modules. Still, they ignore the fact that identity information should be consistent across poses and are not realizing the data imbalance between frontal and profile face images during training. In this paper, we propose an efficient PoseFace framework which utilizes the facial landmarks to disentangle the pose-invariant features and exploits a pose-adaptive loss to handle the imbalance issue adaptively. Extensive experimental results on the benchmarks of Multi-PIE, CFP, CPLFW and IJB have demonstrated the superiority of our method over the state-of-the-arts.

• Realistic and Efficient Face Swapping: A Unified Approach with Diffusion Models [69.50286698375386]
  We propose a novel approach that better harnesses diffusion models for face-swapping. We introduce a mask shuffling technique during inpainting training, which allows us to create a so-called universal model for swapping. Ours is a relatively unified approach and so it is resilient to errors in other off-the-shelf models.

  We tackle the challenge of face recognition in the wild, where images often suffer from low quality and real-world distortions. Traditional approaches-either training models directly on degraded images or their enhanced counterparts using face restoration techniques-have proven ineffective. We propose an effective adapter for augmenting existing face recognition models trained on high-quality facial datasets.

  We tackle the task of inverting the latent space of pre-trained face recognition models without full model access. We show that the conditional diffusion model loss naturally emerges and that we can effectively sample from the inverse distribution. Our method is the first black-box face recognition model inversion method that offers intuitive control over the generation process.

  We propose a novel Pose-disentangled Contrastive Learning (PCL) method for general self-supervised facial representation. Our PCL first devises a pose-disentangled decoder (PDD), which disentangles the pose-related features from the face-aware features. We then introduce a pose-related contrastive learning scheme that learns pose-related information based on data augmentation of the same image.

  We present a novel two-stage approach to solve the dilemma, where the task of face pose manipulation is cast into face inpainting. By selectively sampling pixels from the input face and slightly adjust their relative locations, the face editing result faithfully keeps the identity information as well as the image style unchanged. With the 3D facial landmarks as guidance, our method is able to manipulate face pose in three degrees of freedom, i.e., yaw, pitch, and roll, resulting in more flexible face pose editing.
