5.2. Experimental Results (Attribute Prediction)

IEEE 2015 International

Conference on Computer Vision

With carefully designed pre-

training strategies, our approach

is robust to background clutters

and face variations.

We devise a new fast feed-

forward algorithm for locally

shared filters to save redundant

computation.

We have also revealed multiple

important facts about learning

face representation, which shed

a light on new directions of face

localization and representation

learning.

Existing methods: global and local methods

Our idea: joint face localization and attribute prediction using only image-level attribute tags

Global methods: not robust to deformations of objects

Local methods: rely on face localization and alignment, which would fail under

unconstrained face images with complex variations
