• Abstract: Face is one of the most widely employed traits for person recognition, even in many large-scale applications. Despite technological advancements in face recognition systems, they still face obstacles caused by pose, expression, occlusion, and aging variations. Owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, contactless identity verification has become exceedingly vital. To constrain the pandemic, people have started using face mask. Recently, few studies have been conducted on the effect of face mask on adult face recognition systems. However, the impact of aging with face mask on child subject recognition has not been adequately explored. Thus, the main objective of this study is analyzing the child longitudinal impact together with face mask and other covariates on face recognition systems. Specifically, we performed a comparative investigation of three top performing publicly available face matchers and a post-COVID-19 commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) system under child cross-age verification and identification settings using our generated synthetic mask and no-mask samples. Furthermore, we investigated the longitudinal consequence of eyeglasses with mask and no-mask. The study exploited no-mask longitudinal child face dataset (i.e., extended Indian Child Longitudinal Face Dataset) that contains $26,258$ face images of $7,473$ subjects in the age group of $[2, 18]$ over an average time span of $3.35$ years. Experimental results showed that problem of face mask on automated face recognition is compounded by aging variate.

  Current general face recognition system suffers from serious performance degradation when encountering occluded scenes. This paper proposes a Multi-task gEnerative mask dEcoupling face Recognition (MEER) network to jointly handle these two tasks. We first present a novel mask decoupling module to disentangle mask and identity information, which makes the network obtain purer identity features from visible facial components.

  We propose a physical adversarial universal perturbation (UAP) against state-of-the-art deep learning-based facial recognition models.

  Wearing a mask is a strong protection against the COVID-19 pandemic, even though the vaccine has been successfully developed and is widely available. This observation prompts us to devise an automated approach to monitor the condition of people wearing masks. Unlike previous studies, our work goes beyond mask detection; it focuses on generating a personalized demonstration on proper mask-wearing.
