Faster RCNN has achieved great success for generic object detection including PASCAL object detection and MS COCO object detection. In this report, we propose a detailed designed Faster RCNN method named FDNet1.0 for face detection. Several techniques were employed including multi-scale training, multi-scale testing, light-designed RCNN, some tricks for inference and a vote-based ensemble method. Our method achieves two 1th places and one 2nd place in three tasks over WIDER FACE validation dataset (easy set, medium set, hard set).

Presentation attack detection (PAD) is a critical component in secure face authentication. We present a PAD algorithm to distinguish face spoofs generated by a photograph of a subject from live images. Our method uses an image decomposition network to extract albedo and normal. The domain gap between the real and spoof face images leads to easily identifiable differences, especially between the recovered albedo maps. We enhance this domain gap by retraining existing methods using supervised contrastive loss. We present empirical and theoretical analysis that demonstrates that the contrast and lighting effects can play a significant role in PAD; these show up particularly in the recovered albedo. Finally, we demonstrate that by combining all of these methods we achieve state-of-the-art results on datasets such as CelebA-Spoof, OULU and CASIA-SURF.
The human vision and perception system is inherently incremental where new knowledge is continually learned over time whilst existing knowledge is retained. On the other hand, deep learning networks are ill-equipped for incremental learning. When a well-trained network is adapted to new categories, its performance on the old categories will dramatically degrade. To address this problem, incremental learning methods have been explored which preserve the old knowledge of deep learning models. However, the state-of-the-art incremental object detector employs an external fixed region proposal method that increases overall computation time and reduces accuracy comparing to Region Proposal Network (RPN) based object detectors such as Faster RCNN. The purpose of this paper is to design an efficient end-to-end incremental object detector using knowledge distillation. We first evaluate and analyze the performance of the RPN-based detector with classic distillation on incremental detection tasks. Then, we introduce multi-network adaptive distillation that properly retains knowledge from the old categories when fine-tuning the model for new task. Experiments on the benchmark datasets, PASCAL VOC and COCO, demonstrate that the proposed incremental detector based on Faster RCNN is more accurate as well as being 13 times faster than the baseline detector.
Recently, Adaboost has been widely used to improve the accuracy of any given learning algorithm. In this paper we focus on designing an algorithm to employ combination of Adaboost with Support Vector Machine as weak component classifiers to be used in Face Detection Task. To obtain a set of effective SVM-weaklearner Classifier, this algorithm adaptively adjusts the kernel parameter in SVM instead of using a fixed one. Proposed combination outperforms in generalization in comparison with SVM on imbalanced classification problem. The proposed here method is compared, in terms of classification accuracy, to other commonly used Adaboost methods, such as Decision Trees and Neural Networks, on CMU+MIT face database. Results indicate that the performance of the proposed method is overall superior to previous Adaboost approaches.
The world is facing a huge health crisis due to the rapid transmission of coronavirus (COVID-19). Several guidelines were issued by the World Health Organization (WHO) for protection against the spread of coronavirus. According to WHO, the most effective preventive measure against COVID-19 is wearing a mask in public places and crowded areas. It is very difficult to monitor people manually in these areas. In this paper, a transfer learning model is proposed to automate the process of identifying the people who are not wearing mask. The proposed model is built by fine-tuning the pre-trained state-of-the-art deep learning model, InceptionV3. The proposed model is trained and tested on the Simulated Masked Face Dataset (SMFD). Image augmentation technique is adopted to address the limited availability of data for better training and testing of the model. The model outperformed the other recently proposed approaches by achieving an accuracy of 99.9% during training and 100% during testing.
Deploying deep learning based face detectors on edge devices is a challenging task due to the limited computation resources. Even though binarizing the weights of a very tiny network gives impressive compactness on model size (e.g. 240.9 KB for IFQ-Tinier-YOLO), it is not tiny enough to fit in the embedded devices with strict memory constraints. In this paper, we propose DupNet which consists of two parts. Firstly, we employ weights with duplicated channels for the weight-intensive layers to reduce the model size. Secondly, for the quantization-sensitive layers whose quantization causes notable accuracy drop, we duplicate its input feature maps. It allows us to use more weights channels for convolving more representative outputs. Based on that, we propose a very tiny face detector, DupNet-Tinier-YOLO, which is 6.5X times smaller on model size and 42.0% less complex on computation and meanwhile achieves 2.4% higher detection than IFQ-Tinier-YOLO. Comparing with the full precision Tiny-YOLO, our DupNet-Tinier-YOLO gives 1,694.2X and 389.9X times savings on model size and computation complexity respectively with only 4.0% drop on detection rate (0.880 vs. 0.920). Moreover, our DupNet-Tinier-YOLO is only 36.9 KB, which is the tiniest deep face detector to our best knowledge.
