Does lossy image compression affect racial bias within face recognition? (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Yucer, S., Poyser, M., Al Moubayed, N., & Breckon, T. (2022, October). Does lossy image compression affect racial bias within face recognition?. Presented at International Joint Conference on Biometrics (IJCB 2022), Abu Dhabi, UAE

This study investigates the impact of commonplace lossy image compression on face recognition algorithms with regard to the racial characteristics of the subject. We adopt a recently proposed racial phenotype-based bias analysis methodology to measur... Read More about Does lossy image compression affect racial bias within face recognition?.

Measuring Hidden Bias within Face Recognition via Racial Phenotypes (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Yucer, S., Tekras, F., Al Moubayed, N., & Breckon, T. (2022, January). Measuring Hidden Bias within Face Recognition via Racial Phenotypes. Presented at Proc. Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision, Waikoloa, HI

Recent work reports disparate performance for intersectional racial groups across face recognition tasks: face verification and identification. However, the definition of those racial groups has a significant impact on the underlying findings of such... Read More about Measuring Hidden Bias within Face Recognition via Racial Phenotypes.
