• Abstract: When the facial image is blurred, it has a great impact on high-level vision tasks such as face recognition. The purpose of facial image deblurring is to recover a clear image from a blurry input image, which can improve the recognition accuracy and so on. General deblurring methods can not perform well on facial images. So some face deblurring methods are proposed to improve the performance by adding semantic or structural information as specific priors according to the characteristics of facial images. This paper surveys and summarizes recently published methods for facial image deblurring, most of which are based on deep learning. Firstly, we give a brief introduction to the modeling of image blur. Next, we summarize face deblurring methods into two categories, namely model-based methods and deep learning-based methods. Furthermore, we summarize the datasets, loss functions, and performance evaluation metrics commonly used in the neural network training process. We show the performance of classical methods on these datasets and metrics and give a brief discussion on the differences of model-based and learning-based methods. Finally, we discuss current challenges and possible future research directions.

  We put face forgery in a semantic context and define that computational methods that alter semantic face attributes are sources of face forgery. We construct a large face forgery image dataset, where each image is associated with a set of labels organized in a hierarchical graph. We propose a semantics-oriented face forgery detection method that captures label relations and prioritizes the primary task.

  Face-swap images and videos have attracted more and more malicious attackers to discredit some key figures. Previous pixel-level artifacts based detection techniques always focus on some unclear patterns but ignore some available semantic clues. We propose a biometric information based method to fully exploit the appearance and shape feature for face-swap detection of key figures.

  We propose a novel joint deep learning of facial expression synthesis and recognition method for effective FER. The proposed method involves a two-stage learning procedure. Firstly, a facial expression synthesis generative adversarial network (FESGAN) is pre-trained to generate facial images with different facial expressions. In order to alleviate the problem of data bias between the real images and the synthetic images, we propose an intra-class loss with a novel real data-guided back-propagation (RDBP) algorithm.
