Toward responsible face datasets: modeling the distribution of a disentangled latent space for sampling face images from demographic groups

Sébastien Marcel, Parsa Rahimi Noshanagh, Christophe René Joseph Ecabert

Recently, it has been exposed that some modern facial recognition systems could discriminate specific demographic groups and may lead to unfair attention with respect to various facial attributes such as gender and origin. The main reason are the biases in ...

Indexing Protected Deep Face Templates by Frequent Binary Patterns

Sébastien Marcel, Hatef Otroshi Shahreza

In this work, we present a simple biometric indexing scheme which is binning and retrieving cancelable deep face templates based on frequent binary patterns. The simplicity of the proposed approach makes it applicable to unprotected as well as protected, i ...

Hybrid Protection of Biometric Templates by Combining Homomorphic Encryption and Cancelable Biometrics

Sébastien Marcel, Hatef Otroshi Shahreza

Homomorphic Encryption (HE) has become a wellknown tool for privacy-preserving recognition in biometric systems. Despite some important advantages of HE (such as preservation of recognition accuracy), there are two main drawbacks in the application of HE t ...
