Saliency-based Video Summarization for Face Anti-spoofing
Authors:Usman Muhammad, Mourad Oussalah, Jorma Laaksonen
With the growing availability of databases for face presentation attack detection, researchers are increasingly focusing on video-based face anti-spoofing methods that involve hundreds to thousands of images for training the models. However, there is currently no clear consensus on the optimal number of frames in a video to improve face spoofing detection. Inspired by the visual saliency theory, we present a video summarization method for face anti-spoofing detection that aims to enhance the performance and efficiency of deep learning models by leveraging visual saliency. In particular, saliency information is extracted from the differences between the Laplacian and Wiener filter outputs of the source images, enabling identification of the most visually salient regions within each frame. Subsequently, the source images are decomposed into base and detail images, enhancing the representation of the most important information. Weighting maps are then computed based on the saliency information, indicating the importance of each pixel in the image. By linearly combining the base and detail images using the weighting maps, the method fuses the source images to create a single representative image that summarizes the entire video. The key contribution of the proposed method lies in demonstrating how visual saliency can be used as a data-centric approach to improve the performance and efficiency for face presentation attack detection. By focusing on the most salient images or regions within the images, a more representative and diverse training set can be created, potentially leading to more effective models. To validate the method’s effectiveness, a simple CNN-RNN deep learning architecture was used, and the experimental results showcased state-of-the-art performance on five challenging face anti-spoofing datasets

Domain Generalization Guided by Gradient Signal to Noise Ratio of Parameters
Authors:Mateusz Michalkiewicz, Masoud Faraki, Xiang Yu, Manmohan Chandraker, Mahsa Baktashmotlagh
Overfitting to the source domain is a common issue in gradient-based training of deep neural networks. To compensate for the over-parameterized models, numerous regularization techniques have been introduced such as those based on dropout. While these methods achieve significant improvements on classical benchmarks such as ImageNet, their performance diminishes with the introduction of domain shift in the test set i.e. when the unseen data comes from a significantly different distribution. In this paper, we move away from the classical approach of Bernoulli sampled dropout mask construction and propose to base the selection on gradient-signal-to-noise ratio (GSNR) of network’s parameters. Specifically, at each training step, parameters with high GSNR will be discarded. Furthermore, we alleviate the burden of manually searching for the optimal dropout ratio by leveraging a meta-learning approach. We evaluate our method on standard domain generalization benchmarks and achieve competitive results on classification and face anti-spoofing problems.

Fine-Grained Annotation for Face Anti-Spoofing
Authors:Xu Chen, Yunde Jia, Yuwei Wu
Face anti-spoofing plays a critical role in safeguarding facial recognition systems against presentation attacks. While existing deep learning methods show promising results, they still suffer from the lack of fine-grained annotations, which lead models to learn task-irrelevant or unfaithful features. In this paper, we propose a fine-grained annotation method for face anti-spoofing. Specifically, we first leverage the Segment Anything Model (SAM) to obtain pixel-wise segmentation masks by utilizing face landmarks as point prompts. The face landmarks provide segmentation semantics, which segments the face into regions. We then adopt these regions as masks and assemble them into three separate annotation maps: spoof, living, and background maps. Finally, we combine three separate maps into a three-channel map as annotations for model training. Furthermore, we introduce the Multi-Channel Region Exchange Augmentation (MCREA) to diversify training data and reduce overfitting. Experimental results demonstrate that our method outperforms existing state-of-the-art approaches in both intra-dataset and cross-dataset evaluations.

Flow-Attention-based Spatio-Temporal Aggregation Network for 3D Mask Detection
Authors:Yuxin Cao, Yian Li, Yumeng Zhu, Derui Wang, Minhui Xue
Anti-spoofing detection has become a necessity for face recognition systems due to the security threat posed by spoofing attacks. Despite great success in traditional attacks, most deep-learning-based methods perform poorly in 3D masks, which can highly simulate real faces in appearance and structure, suffering generalizability insufficiency while focusing only on the spatial domain with single frame input. This has been mitigated by the recent introduction of a biomedical technology called rPPG (remote photoplethysmography). However, rPPG-based methods are sensitive to noisy interference and require at least one second (> 25 frames) of observation time, which induces high computational overhead. To address these challenges, we propose a novel 3D mask detection framework, called FASTEN (Flow-Attention-based Spatio-Temporal aggrEgation Network). We tailor the network for focusing more on fine-grained details in large movements, which can eliminate redundant spatio-temporal feature interference and quickly capture splicing traces of 3D masks in fewer frames. Our proposed network contains three key modules: 1) a facial optical flow network to obtain non-RGB inter-frame flow information; 2) flow attention to assign different significance to each frame; 3) spatio-temporal aggregation to aggregate high-level spatial features and temporal transition features. Through extensive experiments, FASTEN only requires five frames of input and outperforms eight competitors for both intra-dataset and cross-dataset evaluations in terms of multiple detection metrics. Moreover, FASTEN has been deployed in real-world mobile devices for practical 3D mask detection.
