• Title: Set-Based Face Recognition Beyond Disentanglement: Burstiness Suppression With Variance Vocabulary
• Authors: Jiong Wang, Zhou Zhao, Fei Wu
• Abstract summary: We argue that the two crucial issues in SFR, the face quality and burstiness, are both identity-irrelevant and variance-relevant. We propose a light-weighted set-based disentanglement framework to separate the identity features with the variance features. To suppress face burstiness in the sets, we propose a vocabulary-based burst suppression (VBS) method.

• Abstract: Set-based face recognition (SFR) aims to recognize the face sets in the unconstrained scenario, where the appearance of same identity may change dramatically with extreme variances (e.g., illumination, pose, expression). We argue that the two crucial issues in SFR, the face quality and burstiness, are both identity-irrelevant and variance-relevant. The quality and burstiness assessment are interfered with by the entanglement of identity, and the face recognition is interfered with by the entanglement of variance. Thus we propose to separate the identity features with the variance features in a light-weighted set-based disentanglement framework. Beyond disentanglement, the variance features are fully utilized to indicate face quality and burstiness in a set, rather than being discarded after training. To suppress face burstiness in the sets, we propose a vocabulary-based burst suppression (VBS) method which quantizes faces with a reference vocabulary. With interword and intra-word normalization operations on the assignment scores, the face burtisness degrees are appropriately estimated. The extensive illustrations and experiments demonstrate the effect of the disentanglement framework with VBS, which gets new state-of-the-art on the SFR benchmarks. The code will be released at https://github.com/Liubinggunzu/set_burstiness.

  We propose an identity and pose disentangled facial expression recognition (IPD-FER) model to learn more discriminative feature representation. For identity encoder, a well pre-trained face recognition model is utilized and fixed during training, which alleviates the restriction on specific expression training data. By comparing the difference between synthesized neutral and expressional images of the same individual, the expression component is further disentangled from identity and pose.

  Face anti-spoofing (FAS) plays a vital role in preventing face recognition systems from presentation attacks.
