Active Authentication using an Autoencoder regularized CNN-based One-Class Classifier
Active authentication refers to the process in which users are unobtrusively
monitored and authenticated continuously throughout their interactions with
mobile devices. Generally, an active authentication problem is modelled as a
one class classification problem due to the unavailability of data from the
impostor users. Normally, the enrolled user is considered as the target class
(genuine) and the unauthorized users are considered as unknown classes
(impostor). We propose a convolutional neural network (CNN) based approach for
one class classification in which a zero centered Gaussian noise and an
autoencoder are used to model the pseudo-negative class and to regularize the
network to learn meaningful feature representations for one class data,
respectively. The overall network is trained using a combination of the
cross-entropy and the reconstruction error losses. A key feature of the
proposed approach is that any pre-trained CNN can be used as the base network
for one class classification. Effectiveness of the proposed framework is
demonstrated using three publically available face-based active authentication
datasets and it is shown that the proposed method achieves superior performance
compared to the traditional one class classification methods. The source code

Deep Feature-based Face Detection on Mobile Devices
We propose a deep feature-based face detector for mobile devices to detect
user's face acquired by the front facing camera. The proposed method is able to
detect faces in images containing extreme pose and illumination variations as
well as partial faces. The main challenge in developing deep feature-based
algorithms for mobile devices is the constrained nature of the mobile platform
and the non-availability of CUDA enabled GPUs on such devices. Our
implementation takes into account the special nature of the images captured by
the front-facing camera of mobile devices and exploits the GPUs present in
mobile devices without CUDA-based frameorks, to meet these challenges.Comment: ISBA 201
MobiFace: A Novel Dataset for Mobile Face Tracking in the Wild
Face tracking serves as the crucial initial step in mobile applications
trying to analyse target faces over time in mobile settings. However, this
problem has received little attention, mainly due to the scarcity of dedicated
face tracking benchmarks. In this work, we introduce MobiFace, the first
dataset for single face tracking in mobile situations. It consists of 80
unedited live-streaming mobile videos captured by 70 different smartphone users
in fully unconstrained environments. Over bounding boxes are manually
labelled. The videos are carefully selected to cover typical smartphone usage.
The videos are also annotated with 14 attributes, including 6 newly proposed
attributes and 8 commonly seen in object tracking. 36 state-of-the-art
trackers, including facial landmark trackers, generic object trackers and
trackers that we have fine-tuned or improved, are evaluated. The results
suggest that mobile face tracking cannot be solved through existing approaches.
In addition, we show that fine-tuning on the MobiFace training data
significantly boosts the performance of deep learning-based trackers,
suggesting that MobiFace captures the unique characteristics of mobile face
tracking. Our goal is to offer the community a diverse dataset to enable the
design and evaluation of mobile face trackers. The dataset, annotations and the
evaluation server will be on \url{https://mobiface.github.io/}.Comment: To appear on The 14th IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face

Active User Authentication for Smartphones: A Challenge Data Set and Benchmark Results
In this paper, automated user verification techniques for smartphones are
investigated. A unique non-commercial dataset, the University of Maryland
Active Authentication Dataset 02 (UMDAA-02) for multi-modal user authentication
research is introduced. This paper focuses on three sensors - front camera,
touch sensor and location service while providing a general description for
other modalities. Benchmark results for face detection, face verification,
touch-based user identification and location-based next-place prediction are
presented, which indicate that more robust methods fine-tuned to the mobile
platform are needed to achieve satisfactory verification accuracy. The dataset
will be made available to the research community for promoting additional
research.Comment: 8 pages, 12 figures, 6 tables. Best poster award at BTAS 201
