UBSegNet: Unified Biometric Region of Interest Segmentation Network
Digital human identity management, can now be seen as a social necessity, as
it is essentially required in almost every public sector such as, financial
inclusions, security, banking, social networking e.t.c. Hence, in today's
rampantly emerging world with so many adversarial entities, relying on a single
biometric trait is being too optimistic. In this paper, we have proposed a
novel end-to-end, Unified Biometric ROI Segmentation Network (UBSegNet), for
extracting region of interest from five different biometric traits viz. face,
iris, palm, knuckle and 4-slap fingerprint. The architecture of the proposed
UBSegNet consists of two stages: (i) Trait classification and (ii) Trait
localization. For these stages, we have used a state of the art region based
convolutional neural network (RCNN), comprising of three major parts namely
convolutional layers, region proposal network (RPN) along with classification
and regression heads. The model has been evaluated over various huge publicly
available biometric databases. To the best of our knowledge this is the first
unified architecture proposed, segmenting multiple biometric traits. It has
been tested over around 5000 * 5 = 25,000 images (5000 images per trait) and
produces very good results. Our work on unified biometric segmentation, opens
up the vast opportunities in the field of multiple biometric traits based
authentication systems.Comment: 4th Asian Conference on Pattern Recognition (ACPR 2017
Using LIP to Gloss Over Faces in Single-Stage Face Detection Networks
This work shows that it is possible to fool/attack recent state-of-the-art
face detectors which are based on the single-stage networks. Successfully
attacking face detectors could be a serious malware vulnerability when
deploying a smart surveillance system utilizing face detectors. We show that
existing adversarial perturbation methods are not effective to perform such an
attack, especially when there are multiple faces in the input image. This is
because the adversarial perturbation specifically generated for one face may
disrupt the adversarial perturbation for another face. In this paper, we call
this problem the Instance Perturbation Interference (IPI) problem. This IPI
problem is addressed by studying the relationship between the deep neural
network receptive field and the adversarial perturbation. As such, we propose
the Localized Instance Perturbation (LIP) that uses adversarial perturbation
constrained to the Effective Receptive Field (ERF) of a target to perform the
attack. Experiment results show the LIP method massively outperforms existing
adversarial perturbation generation methods -- often by a factor of 2 to 10.Comment: to appear ECCV 2018 (accepted version
Joint-SRVDNet: Joint Super Resolution and Vehicle Detection Network
In many domestic and military applications, aerial vehicle detection and
super-resolutionalgorithms are frequently developed and applied independently.
However, aerial vehicle detection on super-resolved images remains a
challenging task due to the lack of discriminative information in the
super-resolved images. To address this problem, we propose a Joint
Super-Resolution and Vehicle DetectionNetwork (Joint-SRVDNet) that tries to
generate discriminative, high-resolution images of vehicles fromlow-resolution
aerial images. First, aerial images are up-scaled by a factor of 4x using a
Multi-scaleGenerative Adversarial Network (MsGAN), which has multiple
intermediate outputs with increasingresolutions. Second, a detector is trained
on super-resolved images that are upscaled by factor 4x usingMsGAN architecture
and finally, the detection loss is minimized jointly with the super-resolution
loss toencourage the target detector to be sensitive to the subsequent
super-resolution training. The network jointlylearns hierarchical and
discriminative features of targets and produces optimal super-resolution
results. Weperform both quantitative and qualitative evaluation of our proposed
network on VEDAI, xView and DOTAdatasets. The experimental results show that
our proposed framework achieves better visual quality than thestate-of-the-art
methods for aerial super-resolution with 4x up-scaling factor and improves the
accuracy ofaerial vehicle detection
