Face recognition with wearable items has been a challenging task in computer vision and involves the problem of identifying humans wearing a face mask. Masked face analysis via multi-task learning could effectively improve performance in many fields of face analysis. In this paper, we propose a unified framework for predicting the age, gender, and emotions of people wearing face masks. We first construct FGNET-MASK, a masked face dataset for the problem. Then, we propose a multi-task deep learning model to tackle the problem. In particular, the multi-task deep learning model takes the data as inputs and shares their weight to yield predictions of age, expression, and gender for the masked face. Through extensive experiments, the proposed framework has been found to provide a better performance than other existing methods.

In this paper, we investigate the interesting yet challenging problem of camouflaged instance segmentation. To this end, we first annotate the available CAMO dataset at the instance level. We also embed the data augmentation in order to increase the number of training samples. Then, we train different state-of-the-art instance segmentation on the CAMO-instance data. Last but not least, we develop an interactive user interface which demonstrates the performance of different state-of-the-art instance segmentation methods on the task of camouflaged instance segmentation. The users are able to compare the results of different methods on the given input images. Our work is expected to push the envelope of the camouflage analysis problem.

In this paper, we introduce a practical system for interactive video object mask annotation, which can support multiple back-end methods. To demonstrate the generalization of our system, we introduce a novel approach for video object annotation. Our proposed system takes scribbles at a chosen key-frame from the end-users via a user-friendly interface and produces masks of corresponding objects at the key-frame via the Control-Point-based Scribbles-to-Mask (CPSM) module. The object masks at the key-frame are then propagated to other frames and refined through the Multi-Referenced Guided Segmentation (MRGS) module. Last but not least, the user can correct wrong segmentation at some frames, and the corrected mask is continuously propagated to other frames in the video via the MRGS to produce the object masks at all video frames.
