Multi-Domain Feature Alignment for Face Anti-Spoofing

Face anti-spoofing is critical for enhancing the robustness of face recognition systems against presentation attacks. Existing methods predominantly rely on binary classification tasks. Recently, methods based on domain generalization have yielded promising results. However, due to distribution discrepancies between various domains, the differences in the feature space related to the domain considerably hinder the generalization of features from unfamiliar domains. In this work, we propose a multi-domain feature alignment framework (MADG) that addresses poor generalization when multiple source domains are distributed in the scattered feature space. Specifically, an adversarial learning process is designed to narrow the differences between domains, achieving the effect of aligning the features of multiple sources, thus resulting in multi-domain alignment. Moreover, to further improve the effectiveness of our proposed framework, we incorporate multi-directional triplet loss to achieve a higher degree of separation in the feature space between fake and real faces. To evaluate the performance of our method, we conducted extensive experiments on several public datasets. The results demonstrate that our proposed approach outperforms current state-of-the-art methods, thereby validating its effectiveness in face anti-spoofing.
