Analyzing the Impact of Shape & Context on the Face Recognition Performance of Deep Networks
Authors:Sandipan Banerjee, Walter Scheirer, Kevin Bowyer, Patrick Flynn
In this article, we analyze how changing the underlying 3D shape of the base identity in face images can distort their overall appearance, especially from the perspective of deep face recognition. As done in popular training data augmentation schemes, we graphically render real and synthetic face images with randomly chosen or best-fitting 3D face models to generate novel views of the base identity. We compare deep features generated from these images to assess the perturbation these renderings introduce into the original identity. We perform this analysis at various degrees of facial yaw with the base identities varying in gender and ethnicity. Additionally, we investigate if adding some form of context and background pixels in these rendered images, when used as training data, further improves the downstream performance of a face recognition model. Our experiments demonstrate the significance of facial shape in accurate face matching and underpin the importance of contextual data for network training.

Deep Learning Based Single Sample Per Person Face Recognition: A Survey
Authors:Fan Liu, Delong Chen, Fei Wang, Zewen Li, Feng Xu
Face recognition has long been an active research area in the field of artificial intelligence, particularly since the rise of deep learning in recent years. In some practical situations, each identity has only a single sample available for training. Face recognition under this situation is referred to as single sample face recognition and poses significant challenges to the effective training of deep models. Therefore, in recent years, researchers have attempted to unleash more potential of deep learning and improve the model recognition performance in the single sample situation. While several comprehensive surveys have been conducted on traditional single sample face recognition approaches, emerging deep learning based methods are rarely involved in these reviews. Accordingly, we focus on the deep learning-based methods in this paper, classifying them into virtual sample methods and generic learning methods. In the former category, virtual images or virtual features are generated to benefit the training of the deep model. In the latter one, additional multi-sample generic sets are used. There are three types of generic learning methods: combining traditional methods and deep features, improving the loss function, and improving network structure, all of which are covered in our analysis. Moreover, we review face datasets that have been commonly used for evaluating single sample face recognition models and go on to compare the results of different types of models. Additionally, we discuss problems with existing single sample face recognition methods, including identity information preservation in virtual sample methods, domain adaption in generic learning methods. Furthermore, we regard developing unsupervised methods is a promising future direction, and point out that the semantic gap as an important issue that needs to be further considered.
