Face Recognition in the age of CLIP & Billion image datasets
Authors:Aaditya Bhat, Shrey Jain
CLIP (Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training) models developed by OpenAI have achieved outstanding results on various image recognition and retrieval tasks, displaying strong zero-shot performance. This means that they are able to perform effectively on tasks for which they have not been explicitly trained. Inspired by the success of OpenAI CLIP, a new publicly available dataset called LAION-5B was collected which resulted in the development of open ViT-H/14, ViT-G/14 models that outperform the OpenAI L/14 model. The LAION-5B dataset also released an approximate nearest neighbor index, with a web interface for search & subset creation. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of various CLIP models as zero-shot face recognizers. Our findings show that CLIP models perform well on face recognition tasks, but increasing the size of the CLIP model does not necessarily lead to improved accuracy. Additionally, we investigate the robustness of CLIP models against data poisoning attacks by testing their performance on poisoned data. Through this analysis, we aim to understand the potential consequences and misuse of search engines built using CLIP models, which could potentially function as unintentional face recognition engines.
