SynThermFace: Amplifying Limited Paired Data for Visible-Thermal Face Recognition via Synthetic Data Generation

Anjith George, Adam Unal, Sebastien Marcel

Face recognition (FR) is a widely used modality for biometric authentication, but conventional models rely on visible-spectrum imagery and degrade when high-quality RGB images cann…

LoRA-based Adaptation Alone Is Not Enough: Understanding the Limits of Foundation Models for Face Presentation Attack Detection

Peter Lorenz, Anjith George, Marcel Sébastien

Face presentation attack detection (PAD) aims to reliably detect a wide range of presentation attacks. While PAD methods achieve strong performance within individual datasets, thei…

Improving Low-Resolution Face Recognition under Limited Data: How Synthetic Data Generation Can Close the Domain Gap

Luis S. Luevano, Ünsal Öztürk, Hatef Otroshi Shahreza +2

Face Recognition (FR) systems in surveillance settings often encounter Low Resolution (LR) faces, those whose face region falls below the standard 112 112 input size. Whil…
