RepFace: Refining Closed-Set Noise with Progressive Label Correction for Face Recognition
- 用生成的噪声样本辅助模型早期识别错误标签
- 按相似度将样本分为三类并分别训练,显著降低误判率
- 适合处理标注不全或有噪声的人脸数据集
人脸识别性能受标签噪声影响严重,尤其是封闭集噪声。现有方法在训练初期对噪声不够鲁棒,且难以区分低置信度样本的真实类别。本文提出RepFace框架,通过引入生成的辅助噪声样本,帮助模型在早期识别噪声;基于样本与正类和最近负类中心的相似度,将样本划分为干净、模糊和噪声三类;对模糊样本采用累积预测进行标签融合;在封闭集中应用标签平滑,将标签调整至最近负类与原标签之间。大量实验表明,该方法在主流人脸数据集上达到先进水平,优于现有方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Face recognition has made remarkable strides, driven by the expanding scale of datasets, advancements in various backbone and discriminative losses. However, face recognition performance is heavily affected by the label noise, especially closed-set noise. While numerous studies have focused on handling label noise, addressing closed-set noise still poses challenges. This paper identifies this challenge as training isn't robust to noise at the early-stage training, and necessitating an appropriate learning strategy for samples with low confidence, which are often misclassified as closed-set noise in later training phases. To address these issues, we propose a new framework to stabilize the training at early stages and split the samples into clean, ambiguous and noisy groups which are devised with separate training strategies. Initially, we employ generated auxiliary closed-set noisy samples to enable the model to identify noisy data at the early stages of training. Subsequently, we introduce how samples are split into clean, ambiguous and noisy groups by their similarity to the positive and nearest negative centers. Then we perform label fusion for ambiguous samples by incorporating accumulated model predictions. Finally, we apply label smoothing within the closed set, adjusting the label to a point between the nearest negative class and the initially assigned label. Extensive experiments validate the effectiveness of our method on mainstream face datasets, achieving state-of-the-art results. The code will be released upon acceptance.
