Using Augmented Face Images to Improve Facial Recognition Tasks
This addresses the issue of bias in facial recognition systems for underrepresented groups, but it is incremental as it builds on existing GAN-based augmentation methods.
The paper tackles the problem of underrepresented attributes in facial recognition by using GAN-augmented images to complement these attributes during training, resulting in improved inference quality for those specific attributes.
We present a framework that uses GAN-augmented images to complement certain specific attributes, usually underrepresented, for machine learning model training. This allows us to improve inference quality over those attributes for the facial recognition tasks.
