Kinship Identification through Joint Learning using Kinship Verification Ensembles

摘要

Kinship verification is a well-explored task: identifying whether or not two persons are kin. In contrast, kinship identification has been largely ignored so far. Kinship identification aims to further identify the particular type of kinship. An extension to kinship verification run short to properly obtain identification, because existing verification networks are individually trained on specific kinships and do not consider the context between different kinship types. Also, existing kinship verification datasets have biased positive-negative distributions which are different than real-world distributions.
