With increasing adoption of face recognition technology as a biometric authentication method, FAS techniques are gaining in importance. From a learning perspective, such systems pose a binary classification task. When implemented with Neural Network based solutions, it is common to use the binary cross entropy (BCE) function as the loss to optimize. In this study, we propose a variant of BCE that enforces a margin in angular space and incorporate it in training the DeepPixBis model [1]. In addition, we also present a method to incorporate such a loss for attentive pixel wise supervision applicable in a fully convolutional setting. Our proposed approach achieves competitive scores in both intra and inter-dataset testing on multiple benchmark datasets, consistently outperforming vanilla DeepPixBis. Interestingly, in the case of Protocol 4 of OULU-NPU, considered to be the hardest protocol, our proposed method achieves 5.22% ACER, which is only 0.22% higher than the current State of the Art without requiring any expensive Neural Architecture Search.","url_abs":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9363382","url_pdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9363382","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"binary-classification","task_name":"Binary Classification"},{"task_slug":"face-anti-spoofing","task_name":"Face Anti-Spoofing"},{"task_slug":"face-recognition","task_name":"Face Recognition"},{"task_slug":"architecture-search","task_name":"Neural Architecture Search"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"acer","method_name":"ACER"},{"method_slug":"convolution","method_name":"Convolution"},{"method_slug":"dense-connections","method_name":"Dense Connections"},{"method_slug":"entropy-regularization","method_name":"Entropy Regularization"},{"method_slug":"experience-replay","method_name":"Experience Replay"},{"method_slug":"relu","method_name":"ReLU"},{"method_slug":"retrace","method_name":"Retrace"},{"method_slug":"softmax","method_name":"Softmax"},{"method_slug":"stochastic-dueling-network","method_name":"Stochastic Dueling Network"},{"method_slug":"trpo","method_name":"TRPO"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[{"leaderboard":"/sota/face-anti-spoofing-on-oulu-npu","task":"Face Anti-Spoofing","dataset":"OULU-NPU","model":"A-DeepPixBis","rank_in_archive_order":3,"of":4,"metrics":{"ACER":"5.22"},"uses_additional_data":false}],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
