arXiv:2605. 20735v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: NIST Iris Exchange (IREX) offers an appealing solution to evaluating new open-source iris recognition algorithms, but it presents high barriers to entry because these algorithms must be written in C++, using a specific API, and adapted to meet strict IREX speed and memory constraints.
arXiv:2608. 08977v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This work focuses on the impact and detection of clear contact lenses in the context of iris recognition.
arXiv:2606. 24586v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning approaches to biometric verification are commonly trained by optimizing indirect objectives, creating a misalignment between the optimization process and the primary evaluation metric, typically the Equal Error Rate (EER).
arXiv:2606. 00380v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine unlearning removes the influence of specific training data from a trained model without retraining it from scratch.
Deep learning approaches to biometric verification are commonly trained by optimizing indirect objectives, creating a misalignment between the optimization process and the primary evaluation metric, typically the Equal Error Rate (EER). This paper introduces EERLoss: a subdifferentiable, arbitrarily accurate approximation to EER for training deep biometric models.
arXiv:2407. 13922v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Face recognition (FR) systems are widely deployed in critical applications, making their reliability and robustness across diverse populations and conditions essential.
arXiv:2607. 03581v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The widespread adoption of facial masks, accelerated by COVID-19 and mandated in security-sensitive settings, has exposed limitations of conventional face recognition systems.
Acne vulgaris affects most adolescents and many adults. Accurate severity grading guides treatment, monitoring, and clinical trial endpoints, but manual assessment using the Investigator's Global Assessment or Hayashi criteria is limited by inter-rater variability and inconsistent imaging conditions.
arXiv:2607. 06254v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deepfake image detection is currently served by three fundamentally different paradigms: commercial APIs, zero-shot vision-language models (LLMs), and open-source detectors.
arXiv:2607. 14932v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Synthetic face datasets have become effective enough to train face recognition models with accuracy rivaling that of models trained on real photographs.
arXiv:2608. 07651v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) show promise in medical image interpretation but suffer from hallucination, limited accuracy, and run-to-run inconsistency.
arXiv:2608. 08521v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Face recognition systems face two distinct, commonly-separated failure modes: spoofing, where an impostor presents a photograph or video of an authorized user, and disguise, where a legitimate user is rejected because their appearance differs from their enrolled template due to accessories, facial hair, illumination, or pose.
arXiv:2606. 08123v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Model selection for safety-relevant visual recognition is often based on clean aggregate performance, although robustness, transfer, embedded latency, and explanation faithfulness may produce different preferences.
