DVG-Face: Dual Variational Generation for Heterogeneous Face Recognition

Heterogeneous face recognition (HFR) refers to matching cross-domain faces and plays a crucial role in public security. Nevertheless, HFR is confronted with challenges from large domain discrepancy and insufficient heterogeneous data. In this paper, we formulate HFR as a dual generation problem, and tackle it via a novel dual variational generation (DVG-Face) framework. Specifically, a dual variat...
