Abstract

A computer-implemented method for implementing face recognition includes receiving training data including a plurality of augmented images each corresponding to a respective one of a plurality of input images augmented by one of a plurality of variations, splitting a feature embedding generated from the training data into a plurality of sub-embeddings each associated with one of the plurality of variations, associating each of the plurality of sub-embeddings with respective ones of a plurality of confidence values, and applying a plurality of losses including a confidence-aware identification loss and a variation-decorrelation loss to the plurality of sub-embeddings and the plurality of confidence values to improve face recognition performance by learning the plurality of sub-embeddings.
