提出无种族偏见的面部老化模型,提升亲属关系验证准确率

A Race Bias Free Face Aging Model for Reliable Kinship Verification

  • 设计双模块生成对抗网络,消除种族偏差
  • 在所有年龄组上平均提升13.14%验证准确率
  • 适合需要公平人脸识别的司法与家庭识别场景

亲属关系验证中的年龄差距问题源于父母与子女照片的时间差异,且同龄图像常不可得。现有面部老化模型存在种族偏差,影响生成图像的相似性。为此,本文提出一种新型生成对抗网络模型RA-GAN,包含新模块RACEpSp和特征混合器,以生成无种族偏见的图像。利用该模型生成的同龄父母子女图像进行验证实验表明:在所有年龄组上,RA-GAN相比SAM-GAN平均提升13.14%;在60岁以上组别中,相较CUSP-GAN提升9.1%的种族准确性。此外,RA-GAN在所有年龄组下均更好保留个体身份。将KinFaceW-I和KinFaceW-II数据集中的父母与子女图像转换为同龄后,验证准确率显著提升:在KinFaceW-I上,父子、父女、母子、母女关系分别提升5.22、5.12、1.63、0.41个百分点;在KinFaceW-II上,父女、父子、母子关系分别提升2.9、0.39、1.6个百分点。代码已开源。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

The age gap in kinship verification addresses the time difference between the photos of the parent and the child. Moreover, their same-age photos are often unavailable, and face aging models are racially biased, which impacts the likeness of photos. Therefore, we propose a face aging GAN model, RA-GAN, consisting of two new modules, RACEpSp and a feature mixer, to produce racially unbiased images. The unbiased synthesized photos are used in kinship verification to investigate the results of verifying same-age parent-child images. The experiments demonstrate that our RA-GAN outperforms SAM-GAN on an average of 13.14\% across all age groups, and CUSP-GAN in the 60+ age group by 9.1\% in terms of racial accuracy. Moreover, RA-GAN can preserve subjects' identities better than SAM-GAN and CUSP-GAN across all age groups. Additionally, we demonstrate that transforming parent and child images from the KinFaceW-I and KinFaceW-II datasets to the same age can enhance the verification accuracy across all age groups. The accuracy increases with our RA-GAN for the kinship relationships of father-son and father-daughter, mother-son, and mother-daughter, which are 5.22, 5.12, 1.63, and 0.41, respectively, on KinFaceW-I. Additionally, the accuracy for the relationships of father-daughter, father-son, and mother-son is 2.9, 0.39, and 1.6 on KinFaceW-II, respectively.
