This course was taught by Det. Watson with the Reno PD, and used a lot of state of the art forensic tools. It is part of the UNR cybersecurity push that has been great to be a part of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I did a paper on Data Augmentation. It&#8217;s called <em>Data Augmentation: Demographics and Race in Facial Recognition<\/em> and the link is here: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1oYfU4IIEaKcvWiExSJFtaT7eyl-k76POWD82bI69h9I\/edit?usp=sharing\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1oYfU4IIEaKcvWiExSJFtaT7eyl-k76POWD82bI69h9I\/edit?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1oYfU4IIEaKcvWiExSJFtaT7eyl-k76POWD82bI69h9I\/edit?usp=sharing<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Basically, I used a Generative Adversarial Network to create faces from a Tensorflow Hub pretrained GAN. Then I interpolated between these faces as vectors on a tensor, creating blends of faces from the same demographic categories. Two example of this are seen here (Bruno Mars and George Eads):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/david-gabriel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"307\" height=\"491\" src=\"https:\/\/david-gabriel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44\" srcset=\"https:\/\/david-gabriel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image.png 307w, https:\/\/david-gabriel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image-188x300.png 188w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 307px) 100vw, 307px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Each face is increasingly dissimilar for the first face. By attempting to match the celebrity face at the top, we can begin to understand disparities between demographics in facial recognition, a topic which has been called into question by ANSI, the American National Standards Institute. Each face down the interpolation is less like the actual GAN generated celebrity, and should define a boundary within the interpolation space, which represents precision of the adversarial images. Ideally, a demographically fair model will draw the same boundaries across these distortions regardless of demographic and between demographic classes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The demographic categories for which data was generated were: Female and Male, African and Caucation with four total categories, although this could be expanded with the code included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of the data used in this paper is available in the Github Repository here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/davidgabriel42\/Dataset-CS704-Data_Augmentation-Demographics-Race\">https:\/\/github.com\/davidgabriel42\/Dataset-CS704-Data_Augmentation-Demographics-Race<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I&#8217;ve released my paper on Facial Recognition I did for my Digital Forensics course.
