Abstract: A computer-implemented method for implementing face spoofing detection using a physical-cue-guided multi-source multi-channel framework includes receiving a set of data including face recognition data, liveness data and material data associated with at least one face image, obtaining a shared feature from the set of data using a backbone neural network structure, performing, based on the shared feature, a pretext task corresponding to face recognition, a first proxy task corresponding to depth estimation, a liveness detection task, and a second proxy task corresponding to material prediction, and aggregating outputs of the pretext task, the first proxy task, the liveness detection task and the second proxy task using an attention mechanism to boost face spoofing detection performance.

Abstract: Methods and systems for image clustering include matching a new image to a representative image of a cluster. The new image is set as a representative of the cluster with a first time limit. The new image is set as a representative of the cluster with a second time limit, responsive to a determination that the new image has matched at least one incoming image during the first time limit.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for domain adaptation between a source domain and a target domain. The method includes applying, by a hardware processor, an attention network to features extracted from images included in the source and target domains to provide attended features relating to a given task to be domain adapted between the source and target domains. The method further includes applying, by the hardware processor, a deformation network to at least some of the attended features to align the attended features between the source and target domains using warping to provide attended and warped features. The method also includes training, by the hardware processor, a target domain classifier using the images from the source domain. The method additionally includes classifying, by the hardware processor using the trained target domain classifier, at least one image from the target domain.

Abstract: Systems and methods for processing video are provided. The method includes receiving a text-based description of active scenes and representing the text-based description as a word embedding matrix. The method includes using a text encoder implemented by neural network to output frame level textual representation and video level representation of the word embedding matrix. The method also includes generating, by a shared generator, frame by frame video based on the frame level textual representation, the video level representation and noise vectors. A frame level and a video level convolutional filter of a video discriminator are generated to classify frames and video of the frame by frame video as true or false. The method also includes training a conditional video generator that includes the text encoder, the video discriminator, and the shared generator in a generative adversarial network to convergence.
