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.
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.
