摘要:
随着深度学习的兴起,人脸识别技术得到了广泛的研究和快速发展。尽管人脸识别被认为是一项成熟的技术,但我们发现现有的开源模型和商业算法在某些复杂的分布外(OOD)场景中缺乏鲁棒性,这引发了对这些系统可靠性的担忧。在本文中,我们引入了OODFace,从常见损坏和外观变化两个角度探索人脸识别模型面临的OOD挑战。我们针对人脸识别系统地设计了9大类共30种OOD场景。通过在公共数据集上模拟这些挑战,我们建立了三个鲁棒性基准:LFW-C/V、CFP-FP-C/V和YTF-C/V。随后,我们对19个人脸识别模型和3个商业API进行了广泛实验,并针对口罩进行了扩展的物理实验,以评估其鲁棒性。接下来,我们从防御策略和视觉语言模型(VLMs)两个角度探索潜在解决方案。基于实验结果,我们得出若干关键见解,强调人脸识别系统对OOD数据的脆弱性,并提出可能的解决方案。此外,我们提供了一个统一的工具包,包含所有损坏和变化类型,可轻松扩展到其他数据集。我们希望我们的基准和发现能为未来人脸识别模型鲁棒性的改进提供指导。
英文摘要:
With the rise of deep learning, facial recognition technology has seen extensive research and rapid development. Although facial recognition is considered a mature technology, we find that existing open-source models and commercial algorithms lack robustness in certain complex Out-of-Distribution (OOD) scenarios, raising concerns about the reliability of these systems. In this paper, we introduce OODFace, which explores the OOD challenges faced by facial recognition models from two perspectives: common corruptions and appearance variations. We systematically design 30 OOD scenarios across 9 major categories tailored for facial recognition. By simulating these challenges on public datasets, we establish three robustness benchmarks: LFW-C/V, CFP-FP-C/V, and YTF-C/V. We then conduct extensive experiments on 19 facial recognition models and 3 commercial APIs, along with extended physical experiments on face masks to assess their robustness. Next, we explore potential solutions from two perspectives: defense strategies and Vision-Language Models (VLMs). Based on the results, we draw several key insights, highlighting the vulnerability of facial recognition systems to OOD data and suggesting possible solutions. Additionally, we offer a unified toolkit that includes all corruption and variation types, easily extendable to other datasets. We hope that our benchmarks and findings can provide guidance for future improvements in facial recognition model robustness.
