Fairness Under Cover: Evaluating the Impact of Occlusions on Demographic Bias in Facial Recognition [PDF]
arXivThis study investigates the effects of occlusions on the fairness of face recognition systems, particularly focusing on demographic biases. Using the Racial Faces in the Wild (RFW) dataset and synthetically added realistic occlusions, we evaluate their effect on the performance of face recognition models trained on the BUPT-Balanced and BUPT-GlobalFace

MuseTalk: Real-Time High-Fidelity Video Dubbing via Spatio-Temporal Sampling [PDF]
arXivReal-time video dubbing that preserves identity consistency while achieving accurate lip synchronization remains a critical challenge. Existing approaches face a trilemma: diffusion-based methods achieve high visual fidelity but suffer from prohibitive computational costs, while GAN-based solutions sacrifice lip-sync accuracy or dental details for real-
