Fun Selfie Filters in Face Recognition: Impact Assessment and Removal

This work investigates the impact of fun selfie filters, which are frequently used to modify selfies, on face recognition systems. Based on a qualitative assessment and classification of freely available mobile applications, ten relevant fun selfie filters are selected to create a database. To this end, the selected filters are automatically applied to face images of public face image databases. Different state-of-the-art methods are used to evaluate the influence of fun selfie filters on the performance of face detection using dlib, RetinaFace, and a COTS method, sample quality estimated by FaceQNet and MagFace, and recognition accuracy employing ArcFace and a COTS algorithm. The obtained results indicate that selfie filters negatively affect face recognition modules, especially if fun selfie filters cover a large region of the face, where the mouth, nose, and eyes are covered. To mitigate such unwanted effects, a GAN-based selfie filter removal algorithm is proposed which consists of a segmentation module, a perceptual network, and a generation module. In a cross-database experiment the application of the presented selfie filter removal technique has shown to significantly improve the biometric performance of the underlying face recognition systems.
