Data uncertainty is commonly observed in the images for face recognition (FR). However, deep learning algorithms often make predictions with high confidence even for uncertain or irrelevant inputs. Intuitively, FR algorithms can benefit from both the estimation of uncertainty and the detection of out-of-distribution (OOD) samples. Taking a probabilistic view of the current classification model, the temperature scalar is exactly the scale of uncertainty noise implicitly added in the softmax function. Meanwhile, the uncertainty of images in a dataset should follow a prior distribution. Based on the observation, a unified framework for uncertainty modeling and FR, Random Temperature Scaling (RTS), is proposed to learn a reliable FR algorithm. The benefits of RTS are two-fold. (1) In the training phase, it can adjust the learning strength of clean and noisy samples for stability and accuracy. (2) In the test phase, it can provide a score of confidence to detect uncertain, low-quality and even OOD samples, without training on extra labels. Extensive experiments on FR benchmarks demonstrate that the magnitude of variance in RTS, which serves as an OOD detection metric, is closely related to the uncertainty of the input image. RTS can achieve top performance on both the FR and OOD detection tasks. Moreover, the model trained with RTS can perform robustly on datasets with noise. The proposed module is light-weight and only adds negligible computation cost to the model.

现代基于深度学习的系统的性能极大地取决于输入对象的质量。例如，对于模糊或损坏的输入，面部识别质量将较低。但是，在更复杂的情况下，很难预测输入质量对所得准确性的影响。我们提出了一种深度度量学习的方法，该方法允许直接估算不确定性，几乎没有额外的计算成本。开发的\ textit {scaleface}算法使用可训练的比例值，以修改嵌入式空间中的相似性。这些依赖于输入的量表值代表了对识别结果的信心的度量，从而允许估计不确定性。我们提供了有关面部识别任务的全面实验，这些实验表明与其他不确定性感知的面部识别方法相比，比例表面的表现出色。我们还将结果扩展到了文本到图像检索的任务，表明所提出的方法以显着的利润击败了竞争对手。

超越在分销数据上的测试上，在分销（OOD）检测中最近的普及方式增加了。最近尝试分类OOD数据介绍了接近和远远检测的概念。具体而言，先前作品在检测难度方面定义了OOD数据的特征。我们建议使用两种类型的分布换档来表征ood数据的频谱：协变速和概念转移，其中协变速转移对应于样式的变化，例如噪声和概念移位表示语义的变化。该表征揭示了对每种类型的敏感性对OOD数据的检测和置信校准是重要的。因此，我们调查了捕获对改善它们的每种类型数据集偏移和方法的敏感性的得分功能。为此，我们从理论上得出了两个分数函数，用于ood检测，协变速分数和概念换档分数，基于对均分数的kl分解，并提出了一种几何启发方法（几何奥丁）来改善ood检测在两个班次下，只有分发数据。另外，所提出的方法自然地导致表现力的后HOC校准函数，其在分配和分发数据中产生最先进的校准性能。我们是第一个提出一种跨越检测和校准以及不同类型的班次工作的方法的方法。查看https://sites.google.com/view/geometric-decomposition的project页面。

Deep neural networks have attained remarkable performance when applied to data that comes from the same distribution as that of the training set, but can significantly degrade otherwise. Therefore, detecting whether an example is out-of-distribution (OoD) is crucial to enable a system that can reject such samples or alert users. Recent works have made significant progress on OoD benchmarks consisting of small image datasets. However, many recent methods based on neural networks rely on training or tuning with both in-distribution and out-of-distribution data. The latter is generally hard to define a-priori, and its selection can easily bias the learning. We base our work on a popular method ODIN 1 [21], proposing two strategies for freeing it from the needs of tuning with OoD data, while improving its OoD detection performance. We specifically propose to decompose confidence scoring as well as a modified input pre-processing method. We show that both of these significantly help in detection performance. Our further analysis on a larger scale image dataset shows that the two types of distribution shifts, specifically semantic shift and non-semantic shift, present a significant difference in the difficulty of the problem, providing an analysis of when ODIN-like strategies do or do not work.

检测到分布输入对于在现实世界中安全部署机器学习模型至关重要。然而，已知神经网络遭受过度自信的问题，在该问题中，它们对分布和分布的输入的信心异常高。在这项工作中，我们表明，可以通过在训练中实施恒定的向量规范来通过logit归一化（logitnorm）（logitnorm）来缓解此问题。我们的方法是通过分析的激励，即logit的规范在训练过程中不断增加，从而导致过度自信的产出。因此，LogitNorm背后的关键思想是将网络优化期间输出规范的影响解散。通过LogitNorm培训，神经网络在分布数据和分布数据之间产生高度可区分的置信度得分。广泛的实验证明了LogitNorm的优势，在公共基准上，平均FPR95最高为42.30％。

How to improve discriminative feature learning is central in classification. Existing works address this problem by explicitly increasing inter-class separability and intra-class similarity, whether by constructing positive and negative pairs for contrastive learning or posing tighter class separating margins. These methods do not exploit the similarity between different classes as they adhere to i.i.d. assumption in data. In this paper, we embrace the real-world data distribution setting that some classes share semantic overlaps due to their similar appearances or concepts. Regarding this hypothesis, we propose a novel regularization to improve discriminative learning. We first calibrate the estimated highest likelihood of one sample based on its semantically neighboring classes, then encourage the overall likelihood predictions to be deterministic by imposing an adaptive exponential penalty. As the gradient of the proposed method is roughly proportional to the uncertainty of the predicted likelihoods, we name it adaptive discriminative regularization (ADR), trained along with a standard cross entropy loss in classification. Extensive experiments demonstrate that it can yield consistent and non-trivial performance improvements in a variety of visual classification tasks (over 10 benchmarks). Furthermore, we find it is robust to long-tailed and noisy label data distribution. Its flexible design enables its compatibility with mainstream classification architectures and losses.

Recent years witnessed the breakthrough of face recognition with deep convolutional neural networks. Dozens of papers in the field of FR are published every year. Some of them were applied in the industrial community and played an important role in human life such as device unlock, mobile payment, and so on. This paper provides an introduction to face recognition, including its history, pipeline, algorithms based on conventional manually designed features or deep learning, mainstream training, evaluation datasets, and related applications. We have analyzed and compared state-of-the-art works as many as possible, and also carefully designed a set of experiments to find the effect of backbone size and data distribution. This survey is a material of the tutorial named The Practical Face Recognition Technology in the Industrial World in the FG2023.

本文我们的目标是利用异质的温度缩放作为校准策略（OOD）检测。此处的异质性是指每个样品的最佳温度参数可能不同，而不是传统的方法对整个分布使用相同的值。为了实现这一目标，我们提出了一种称为锚定的新培训策略，可以估算每个样品的适当温度值，从而导致几个基准的最新OOD检测性能。使用NTK理论，我们表明该温度函数估计与分类器的认知不确定性紧密相关，这解释了其行为。与某些表现最佳的OOD检测方法相反，我们的方法不需要暴露于其他离群数据集，自定义校准目标或模型结合。通过具有不同OOD检测设置的经验研究 - 远处，OOD附近和语义相干OOD - 我们建立了一种高效的OOD检测方法。可以在此处访问代码和模型-https：//github.com/rushilanirudh/amp

尽管具有明显的区分靶向分布样本的能力，但深度神经网络在检测异常分布数据方面的性能差。为了解决此缺陷，最先进的解决方案选择在离群值的辅助数据集上训练深网。这些辅助离群值的各种培训标准是根据启发式直觉提出的。但是，我们发现这些直观设计的离群训练标准可能会损害分布学习，并最终导致劣等的表现。为此，我们确定了分布不兼容的三个原因：矛盾的梯度，错误的可能性和分布变化。基于我们的新理解，我们通过调整深层模型和损耗函数的顶级设计，提出一种新的分布检测方法。我们的方法通过减少对分布特征的概率特征的干扰来实现分布兼容性。在几个基准上，我们的方法不仅可以实现最新的分布检测性能，而且还提高了分布精度。

众所周知，视觉分类模型在数据分布班面上遭受较差的校准。在本文中，我们对此问题采取了几何方法。我们提出几何灵敏度分解（GSD）将样本特征嵌入的标准分解为目标分类器的示例特征嵌入和角度相似度分解为依赖于实例和实例 - 独立的组件。实例相关组件捕获关于输入中的更改的敏感信息，而实例无关的组件仅表示仅用于最小化训练数据集的丢失的不敏感信息。灵感来自分解，我们分析了一个简单的扩展到当前的SoftMax-Linear模型，这在训练期间学会解开两个组件。在几种常见视觉模型上，脱谕式模型在面对配送（OOD）数据和腐败方面的标准校准度量上的其他校准方法表现出明显不那么复杂。具体而言，我们将当前技术超越30.8％的相对改善对预期校准误差的损坏的CIFAR100。代码在https://github.com/gt-ripl/geometric -sentivity-decomposition.git。

Recently, a popular line of research in face recognition is adopting margins in the well-established softmax loss function to maximize class separability. In this paper, we first introduce an Additive Angular Margin Loss (ArcFace), which not only has a clear geometric interpretation but also significantly enhances the discriminative power. Since ArcFace is susceptible to the massive label noise, we further propose sub-center ArcFace, in which each class contains K sub-centers and training samples only need to be close to any of the K positive sub-centers. Sub-center ArcFace encourages one dominant sub-class that contains the majority of clean faces and non-dominant sub-classes that include hard or noisy faces. Based on this self-propelled isolation, we boost the performance through automatically purifying raw web faces under massive real-world noise. Besides discriminative feature embedding, we also explore the inverse problem, mapping feature vectors to face images. Without training any additional generator or discriminator, the pre-trained ArcFace model can generate identity-preserved face images for both subjects inside and outside the training data only by using the network gradient and Batch Normalization (BN) priors. Extensive experiments demonstrate that ArcFace can enhance the discriminative feature embedding as well as strengthen the generative face synthesis.

In this paper, we investigate the problem of predictive confidence in face and kinship verification. Most existing face and kinship verification methods focus on accuracy performance while ignoring confidence estimation for their prediction results. However, confidence estimation is essential for modeling reliability in such high-risk tasks. To address this issue, we first introduce a novel yet simple confidence measure for face and kinship verification, which allows the verification models to transform the similarity score into a confidence score for a given face pair. We further propose a confidence-calibrated approach called angular scaling calibration (ASC). ASC is easy to implement and can be directly applied to existing face and kinship verification models without model modifications, yielding accuracy-preserving and confidence-calibrated probabilistic verification models. To the best of our knowledge, our approach is the first general confidence-calibrated solution to face and kinship verification in a modern context. We conduct extensive experiments on four widely used face and kinship verification datasets, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.

机器学习模型通常会遇到与训练分布不同的样本。无法识别分布（OOD）样本，因此将该样本分配给课堂标签会显着损害模​​型的可靠性。由于其对在开放世界中的安全部署模型的重要性，该问题引起了重大关注。由于对所有可能的未知分布进行建模的棘手性，检测OOD样品是具有挑战性的。迄今为止，一些研究领域解决了检测陌生样本的问题，包括异常检测，新颖性检测，一级学习，开放式识别识别和分布外检测。尽管有相似和共同的概念，但分别分布，开放式检测和异常检测已被独立研究。因此，这些研究途径尚未交叉授粉，创造了研究障碍。尽管某些调查打算概述这些方法，但它们似乎仅关注特定领域，而无需检查不同领域之间的关系。这项调查旨在在确定其共同点的同时，对各个领域的众多著名作品进行跨域和全面的审查。研究人员可以从不同领域的研究进展概述中受益，并协同发展未来的方法。此外，据我们所知，虽然进行异常检测或单级学习进行了调查，但没有关于分布外检测的全面或最新的调查，我们的调查可广泛涵盖。最后，有了统一的跨域视角，我们讨论并阐明了未来的研究线，打算将这些领域更加紧密地融为一体。

深度神经网络具有令人印象深刻的性能，但是他们无法可靠地估计其预测信心，从而限制了其在高风险领域中的适用性。我们表明，应用多标签的一VS损失揭示了分类的歧义并降低了模型的过度自信。引入的Slova（单标签One-Vs-All）模型重新定义了单个标签情况的典型单VS-ALL预测概率，其中只有一个类是正确的答案。仅当单个类具有很高的概率并且其他概率可忽略不计时，提议的分类器才有信心。与典型的SoftMax函数不同，如果所有其他类的概率都很小，Slova自然会检测到分布的样本。该模型还通过指数校准进行了微调，这使我们能够与模型精度准确地对齐置信分数。我们在三个任务上验证我们的方法。首先，我们证明了斯洛伐克与最先进的分布校准具有竞争力。其次，在数据集偏移下，斯洛伐克的性能很强。最后，我们的方法在检测到分布样品的检测方面表现出色。因此，斯洛伐克是一种工具，可以在需要不确定性建模的各种应用中使用。

Out-Of-Distribution (OOD) detection has received broad attention over the years, aiming to ensure the reliability and safety of deep neural networks (DNNs) in real-world scenarios by rejecting incorrect predictions. However, we notice a discrepancy between the conventional evaluation vs. the essential purpose of OOD detection. On the one hand, the conventional evaluation exclusively considers risks caused by label-space distribution shifts while ignoring the risks from input-space distribution shifts. On the other hand, the conventional evaluation reward detection methods for not rejecting the misclassified image in the validation dataset. However, the misclassified image can also cause risks and should be rejected. We appeal to rethink OOD detection from a human-centric perspective, that a proper detection method should reject the case that the deep model's prediction mismatches the human expectations and adopt the case that the deep model's prediction meets the human expectations. We propose a human-centric evaluation and conduct extensive experiments on 45 classifiers and 8 test datasets. We find that the simple baseline OOD detection method can achieve comparable and even better performance than the recently proposed methods, which means that the development in OOD detection in the past years may be overestimated. Additionally, our experiments demonstrate that model selection is non-trivial for OOD detection and should be considered as an integral of the proposed method, which differs from the claim in existing works that proposed methods are universal across different models.

基于软马克斯的损失函数及其变体（例如，界面，圆顶和弧形）可显着改善野生无约束场景中的面部识别性能。这些算法的一种常见实践是对嵌入特征和线性转换矩阵之间的乘法进行优化。但是，在大多数情况下，基于传统的设计经验给出了嵌入功能的尺寸，并且在给出固定尺寸时，使用该功能本身提高性能的研究较少。为了应对这一挑战，本文提出了一种称为subface的软关系近似方法，该方法采用了子空间功能来促进面部识别的性能。具体而言，我们在训练过程中动态选择每个批次中的非重叠子空间特征，然后使用子空间特征在基于软磁性的损失之间近似完整功能，因此，深层模型的可区分性可以显着增强，以增强面部识别。在基准数据集上进行的综合实验表明，我们的方法可以显着提高香草CNN基线的性能，这强烈证明了基于利润率的损失的子空间策略的有效性。

我们表明，著名的混音的有效性[Zhang等，2018]，如果而不是将其用作唯一的学习目标，就可以进一步改善它，而是将其用作标准跨侧面损失的附加规则器。这种简单的变化不仅提供了太大的准确性，而且在大多数情况下，在各种形式的协变量转移和分布外检测实验下，在大多数情况下，混合量的预测不确定性估计质量都显着提高了。实际上，我们观察到混合物在检测出分布样本时可能会产生大量退化的性能，因为我们在经验上表现出来，因为它倾向于学习在整个过程中表现出高渗透率的模型。很难区分分布样本与近分离样本。为了显示我们的方法的功效（RegMixup），我们在视觉数据集（Imagenet＆Cifar-10/100）上提供了详尽的分析和实验，并将其与最新方法进行比较，以进行可靠的不确定性估计。

Determining whether inputs are out-of-distribution (OOD) is an essential building block for safely deploying machine learning models in the open world. However, previous methods relying on the softmax confidence score suffer from overconfident posterior distributions for OOD data. We propose a unified framework for OOD detection that uses an energy score. We show that energy scores better distinguish in-and out-of-distribution samples than the traditional approach using the softmax scores. Unlike softmax confidence scores, energy scores are theoretically aligned with the probability density of the inputs and are less susceptible to the overconfidence issue. Within this framework, energy can be flexibly used as a scoring function for any pre-trained neural classifier as well as a trainable cost function to shape the energy surface explicitly for OOD detection. On a CIFAR-10 pre-trained WideResNet, using the energy score reduces the average FPR (at TPR 95%) by 18.03% compared to the softmax confidence score. With energy-based training, our method outperforms the state-of-the-art on common benchmarks.

在过去的几年中，关于分类，检测和分割问题的3D学习领域取得了重大进展。现有的绝大多数研究都集中在规范的封闭式条件上，忽略了现实世界的内在开放性。这限制了需要管理新颖和未知信号的自主系统的能力。在这种情况下，利用3D数据可以是有价值的资产，因为它传达了有关感应物体和场景几何形状的丰富信息。本文提供了关于开放式3D学习的首次广泛研究。我们介绍了一种新颖的测试床，其设置在类别语义转移方面的难度增加，并且涵盖了内域（合成之间）和跨域（合成对真实）场景。此外，我们研究了相关的分布情况，并开放了2D文献，以了解其最新方法是否以及如何在3D数据上有效。我们广泛的基准测试在同一连贯的图片中定位了几种算法，从而揭示了它们的优势和局限性。我们的分析结果可能是未来量身定制的开放式3D模型的可靠立足点。

变形自身偏移（VAES）是具有来自深神经网络架构和贝叶斯方法的丰富代表功能的有影响力的生成模型。然而，VAE模型具有比分布（ID）输入的分配方式分配更高的可能性较高的可能性。为了解决这个问题，认为可靠的不确定性估计是对对OOC投入的深入了解至关重要。在这项研究中，我们提出了一种改进的噪声对比之前（INCP），以便能够集成到VAE的编码器中，称为INCPVAE。INCP是可扩展，可培训和与VAE兼容的，它还采用了来自INCP的优点进行不确定性估计。各种数据集的实验表明，与标准VAE相比，我们的模型在OOD数据的不确定性估计方面是优越的，并且在异常检测任务中是强大的。INCPVAE模型获得了可靠的输入不确定性估算，并解决了VAE模型中的ood问题。
