Generating and editing a person's face demands high precision, as even minor modifications can significantly alter a subject's perceived identity. Current personalization and editing methods built on general-purpose text-to-image models, however, often lack the precision required for fine-grained facial edits.
arXiv:2608. 14130v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computer vision models for generated facial content, such as face editing and privacy protection, increasingly affect people, requiring similarity metrics that serve as faithful proxies for human perception.

The paper introduces Semantic Boundary Predictor (SBP), an inference‑time framework that improves demographic fairness in synthetic face generation by applying a single, one‑shot intervention during reverse denoising. SBP learns linear semantic boundaries from late‑stage latent representations and applies them only at the initial noisy latent, leaving the rest of the diffusion process unchanged. Experiments on CelebA‑HQ show significant reductions in fairness disparity—98% for gender, 95% for binary race, and 15% for four‑class race—while preserving image quality across demographic groups.
Makeup-transfer applies the reference makeup to the source face while preserving the source identity. Despite advances in full-face editing by diffusion-based methods, strong regional controllability, makeup fidelity, and identity preservation remain challenging.
arXiv:2606. 11615v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The widespread adoption of face recognition (FR) technologies raises serious privacy concerns, as facial data can be exploited without consent.

Self-supervision is a powerful technique for learning visual representations from unlabeled data. Existing techniques primarily adopt a two-stage approach for self-supervised learning (SSL): a pretraining stage on unlabeled data followed by a finetuning stage on labeled data.
arXiv:2607. 28936v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Facial biometric identification relies on the distinctiveness of user attributes within a high-dimensional embedding space.
