• Abstract: Can we construct an explainable face recognition network able to learn a facial part-based feature like eyes, nose, mouth and so forth, without any manual annotation or additionalsion datasets? In this paper, we propose a generic Explainable Channel Loss (ECLoss) to construct an explainable face recognition network. The explainable network trained with ECLoss can easily learn the facial part-based representation on the target convolutional layer, where an individual channel can detect a certain face part. Our experiments on dozens of datasets show that ECLoss achieves superior explainability metrics, and at the same time improves the performance of face verification without face alignment. In addition, our visualization results also illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed ECLoss.

  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 introduce cycle-consistency in facial characteristics as free supervisory signal to learn facial representations from unlabeled facial images. The learning is realized by superimposing the facial motion cycle-consistency and identity cycle-consistency constraints. Our approach is competitive with those of existing methods, demonstrating the rich and unique information embedded in the disentangled representations.

  We propose a framework called InterFaceGAN to interpret the disentangled face representation learned by state-of-the-art GAN models. We first find that GANs learn various semantics in some linear subspaces of the latent space. We then conduct a detailed study on the correlation between different semantics and manage to better disentangle them via subspace projection.

• Occlusion-Adaptive Deep Network for Robust Facial Expression Recognition [56.11054589916299]
  We propose a landmark-guided attention branch to find and discard corrupted features from occluded regions. An attention map is first generated to indicate if a specific facial part is occluded and guide our model to attend to non-occluded regions. This results in more diverse and discriminative features, enabling the expression recognition system to recover even though the face is partially occluded.
