Title
Learning Generalizable and Identity-Discriminative Representations for Face Anti-Spoofing
Abstract
AbstractFace anti-spoofing aims to detect presentation attack to face recognition--based authentication systems. It has drawn growing attention due to the high security demand. The widely adopted CNN-based methods usually well recognize the spoofing faces when training and testing spoofing samples display similar patterns, but their performance would drop drastically on testing spoofing faces of novel patterns or unseen scenes, leading to poor generalization performance. Furthermore, almost all current methods treat face anti-spoofing as a prior step to face recognition, which prolongs the response time and makes face authentication inefficient. In this article, we try to boost the generalizability and applicability of face anti-spoofing methods by designing a new generalizable face authentication CNN (GFA-CNN) model with three novelties. First, GFA-CNN introduces a simple yet effective total pairwise confusion loss for CNN training that properly balances contributions of all spoofing patterns for recognizing the spoofing faces. Second, it incorporate a fast domain adaptation component to alleviate negative effects brought by domain variation. Third, it deploys filter diversification learning to make the learned representations more adaptable to new scenes. In addition, the proposed GFA-CNN works in a multi-task manner—it performs face anti-spoofing and face recognition simultaneously. Experimental results on five popular face anti-spoofing and face recognition benchmarks show that GFA-CNN outperforms previous face anti-spoofing methods on cross-test protocols significantly and also well preserves the identity information of input face images.
