Distribution Matching for Multi-Task Learning of Classification Tasks: a Large-Scale Study on Faces & Beyond

Dimitrios Kollias, Viktoriia Sharmanska, Stefanos Zafeiriou

Multi-Task Learning (MTL) is a framework, where multiple related tasks are learned jointly and benefit from a shared representation space, or parameter transfer. To provide suffici…

Okapi: Generalising Better by Making Statistical Matches Match

Myles Bartlett, Sara Romiti, Viktoriia Sharmanska +1

We propose Okapi, a simple, efficient, and general method for robust semi-supervised learning based on online statistical matching. Our method uses a nearest-neighbours-based match…

Free-HeadGAN: Neural Talking Head Synthesis with Explicit Gaze Control

Michail Christos Doukas, Evangelos Ververas, Viktoriia Sharmanska +1

We present Free-HeadGAN, a person-generic neural talking head synthesis system. We show that modeling faces with sparse 3D facial landmarks are sufficient for achieving state-of-th…

RealPatch: A Statistical Matching Framework for Model Patching with Real Samples

Sara Romiti, Christopher Inskip, Viktoriia Sharmanska +1

Machine learning classifiers are typically trained to minimise the average error across a dataset. Unfortunately, in practice, this process often exploits spurious correlations cau…

DAD-3DHeads: A Large-scale Dense, Accurate and Diverse Dataset for 3D Head Alignment from a Single Image

Tetiana Martyniuk, Orest Kupyn, Yana Kurliak +3

We present DAD-3DHeads, a dense and diverse large-scale dataset, and a robust model for 3D Dense Head Alignment in the wild. It contains annotations of over 3.5K landmarks that acc…

Distribution Matching for Heterogeneous Multi-Task Learning: a Large-scale Face Study

Dimitrios Kollias, Viktoriia Sharmanska, Stefanos Zafeiriou

Multi-Task Learning has emerged as a methodology in which multiple tasks are jointly learned by a shared learning algorithm, such as a DNN. MTL is based on the assumption that the…

HeadGAN: One-shot Neural Head Synthesis and Editing

Michail Christos Doukas, Stefanos Zafeiriou, Viktoriia Sharmanska

Recent attempts to solve the problem of head reenactment using a single reference image have shown promising results. However, most of them either perform poorly in terms of photo-…

Head2Head++: Deep Facial Attributes Re-Targeting

Michail Christos Doukas, Mohammad Rami Koujan, Viktoriia Sharmanska +1

Facial video re-targeting is a challenging problem aiming to modify the facial attributes of a target subject in a seamless manner by a driving monocular sequence. We leverage the…

Contrastive Examples for Addressing the Tyranny of the Majority

Viktoriia Sharmanska, Lisa Anne Hendricks, Trevor Darrell +1

Computer vision algorithms, e.g. for face recognition, favour groups of individuals that are better represented in the training data. This happens because of the generalization tha…
