SREFI: Synthesis of realistic example face images [PDF]

2017 IEEE International Joint Conference on Biometrics (IJCB), 2017
In this paper, we propose a novel face synthesis approach that can generate an arbitrarily large number of synthetic images of both real and synthetic identities. Thus a face image dataset can be expanded in terms of the number of identities represented and the number of images per identity using this approach, without the identity-labeling and privacy

Realistic Blur Synthesis for Learning Image Deblurring

, 2022
Training learning-based deblurring methods demands a tremendous amount of blurred and sharp image pairs. Unfortunately, existing synthetic datasets are not realistic enough, and deblurring models trained on them cannot handle real blurred images effectively.
