Learning discriminative representation using large-scale face datasets in the wild is crucial for real-world applications, yet it remains challenging. The difficulties lie in many aspects and this work focus on computing resource constraint and long-tailed class distribution. Recently, classification-based representation learning with deep neural networks and well-designed losses have demonstrated good recognition performance. However, the computing and memory cost linearly scales up to the number of identities (classes) in the training set, and the learning process suffers from unbalanced classes. In this work, we propose a dynamic class queue (DCQ) to tackle these two problems. Specifically, for each iteration during training, a subset of classes for recognition are dynamically selected and their class weights are dynamically generated on-the-fly which are stored in a queue. Since only a subset of classes is selected for each iteration, the computing requirement is reduced. By using a single server without model parallel, we empirically verify in large-scale datasets that 10% of classes are sufficient to achieve similar performance as using all classes. Moreover, the class weights are dynamically generated in a few-shot manner and therefore suitable for tail classes with only a few instances. We show clear improvement over a strong baseline in the largest public dataset Megaface Challenge2 (MF2) which has 672K identities and over 88% of them have less than 10 instances.

Face recognition has achieved significant progress in deep-learning era due to the ultra-large-scale and well-labeled datasets. However, training on ultra-large-scale datasets is time-consuming and takes up a lot of hardware resource. Therefore,
designing an efficient training approach is crucial and indispensable. The heavy computational and memory costs mainly result from the high dimensionality of the Fully-Connected (FC) layer. Specifically, the dimensionality is determined by the number of face identities, which can be million-level or even more. To this end, we propose a novel training approach for ultra-large-scale face datasets, termed Faster Face Classification (F$^2$C). In F$^2$C, we first define a Gallery Net and a Probe Net that are used to generate identities centers and extract faces features for face recognition, respectively. Gallery Net has the same structure as Probe Net and inherits the parameters from Probe Net with a moving average paradigm. After that, to reduce the training time and hardware costs of the FC layer, we propose a Dynamic Class Pool (DCP) that stores the features from Gallery Net and calculates the inner product (logits) with positive samples (whose identities are in the DCP) in each mini-batch. DCP can be regarded as a substitute for the FC layer but it is far smaller, thus greatly reducing the computational and memory costs. For negative samples (whose identities are not in DCP), we minimize the cosine similarities between negative samples and those in DCP. Then, to improve the update efficiency of DCPs parameters, we design a dual data-loader including identity-based and instance-based loaders to generate a certain of identities and samples in mini-batches.
The study of affective computing in the wild setting is underpinned by databases. Existing multimodal emotion databases in the real-world conditions are few and small, with a limited number of subjects and expressed in a single language. To meet this
requirement, we collected, annotated, and prepared to release a new natural state video database (called HEU Emotion). HEU Emotion contains a total of 19,004 video clips, which is divided into two parts according to the data source. The first part contains videos downloaded from Tumblr, Google, and Giphy, including 10 emotions and two modalities (facial expression and body posture). The second part includes corpus taken manually from movies, TV series, and variety shows, consisting of 10 emotions and three modalities (facial expression, body posture, and emotional speech). HEU Emotion is by far the most extensive multi-modal emotional database with 9,951 subjects. In order to provide a benchmark for emotion recognition, we used many conventional machine learning and deep learning methods to evaluate HEU Emotion. We proposed a Multi-modal Attention module to fuse multi-modal features adaptively. After multi-modal fusion, the recognition accuracies for the two parts increased by 2.19% and 4.01% respectively over those of single-modal facial expression recognition.
While deep face recognition has benefited significantly from large-scale labeled data, current research is focused on leveraging unlabeled data to further boost performance, reducing the cost of human annotation. Prior work has mostly been in control
led settings, where the labeled and unlabeled data sets have no overlapping identities by construction. This is not realistic in large-scale face recognition, where one must contend with such overlaps, the frequency of which increases with the volume of data. Ignoring identity overlap leads to significant labeling noise, as data from the same identity is split into multiple clusters. To address this, we propose a novel identity separation method based on extreme value theory. It is formulated as an out-of-distribution detection algorithm, and greatly reduces the problems caused by overlapping-identity label noise. Considering cluster assignments as pseudo-labels, we must also overcome the labeling noise from clustering errors. We propose a modulation of the cosine loss, where the modulation weights correspond to an estimate of clustering uncertainty. Extensive experiments on both controlled and real settings demonstrate our methods consistent improvements over supervised baselines, e.g., 11.6% improvement on IJB-A verification.
Facial recognition is a key enabling component for emerging Internet of Things (IoT) services such as smart homes or responsive offices. Through the use of deep neural networks, facial recognition has achieved excellent performance. However, this is
only possibly when trained with hundreds of images of each user in different viewing and lighting conditions. Clearly, this level of effort in enrolment and labelling is impossible for wide-spread deployment and adoption. Inspired by the fact that most people carry smart wireless devices with them, e.g. smartphones, we propose to use this wireless identifier as a supervisory label. This allows us to curate a dataset of facial images that are unique to a certain domain e.g. a set of people in a particular office. This custom corpus can then be used to finetune existing pre-trained models e.g. FaceNet. However, due to the vagaries of wireless propagation in buildings, the supervisory labels are noisy and weak.We propose a novel technique, AutoTune, which learns and refines the association between a face and wireless identifier over time, by increasing the inter-cluster separation and minimizing the intra-cluster distance. Through extensive experiments with multiple users on two sites, we demonstrate the ability of AutoTune to design an environment-specific, continually evolving facial recognition system with entirely no user effort.
In recent years, due to the emergence of deep learning, face recognition has achieved exceptional success. However, many of these deep face recognition models perform relatively poorly in handling profile faces compared to frontal faces. The major re
ason for this poor performance is that it is inherently difficult to learn large pose invariant deep representations that are useful for profile face recognition. In this paper, we hypothesize that the profile face domain possesses a gradual connection with the frontal face domain in the deep feature space. We look to exploit this connection by projecting the profile faces and frontal faces into a common latent space and perform verification or retrieval in the latent domain. We leverage a coupled generative adversarial network (cpGAN) structure to find the hidden relationship between the profile and frontal images in a latent common embedding subspace. Specifically, the cpGAN framework consists of two GAN-based sub-networks, one dedicated to the frontal domain and the other dedicated to the profile domain. Each sub-network tends to find a projection that maximizes the pair-wise correlation between two feature domains in a common embedding feature subspace. The efficacy of our approach compared with the state-of-the-art is demonstrated using the CFP, CMU MultiPIE, IJB-A, and IJB-C datasets.
