The paper introduces the Celeb Twins Test Set (CTTS), a collection of web‑scraped image pairs for 80 sets of celebrity monozygotic twins, uniquely annotated with skin marks and potential mirror asymmetry. It evaluates current deep CNN matchers, noting they achieve over 76% accuracy yet fail to leverage these distinguishing features. The authors also explore using generative AI tools to synthesize twin images to enhance training data representation.

Synthetic face datasets have become effective enough to train face recognition models with accuracy rivaling that of models trained on real photographs. This progress sidesteps the ethical and legal burdens of collecting real biometric data, yet evaluation has not kept pace.
The paper presents lightweight architectures for detecting GAN-generated synthetic faces, comparing a compact Swin Transformer, pre‑trained Swin‑Tiny and Swin‑Small models, and a hybrid EfficientNet‑B0 + Swin Transformer. Using the 140K Real and Fake Faces dataset, the hybrid model achieved 99% accuracy and 99.44% recall on 5,000 test images, outperforming both pure Swin variants and a CNN‑only baseline. The study demonstrates that combining hierarchical CNN features with shifted‑window self‑attention yields an efficient, computationally lightweight detection method.

DenseFace introduces a bias‑mitigation technique for face recognition that operates on pre‑trained models without retraining. It models each person’s face embeddings with a von Mises‑Fisher distribution and uses a density‑aware probabilistic matching procedure to account for demographic differences. Experiments show that DenseFace consistently reduces racial bias across various architectures and datasets while preserving recognition accuracy.
