Face Anti-Spoofing Based on Adaptive Channel Enhancement and Intra-Class Constraint

Face anti-spoofing detection is crucial for identity verification and security monitoring. However, existing single-modal models struggle with feature extraction under complex lighting conditions and background variations. Moreover, the feature distributions of live and spoofed samples often overlap...

description Face anti-spoofing detection is crucial for identity verification and security monitoring. However, existing single-modal models struggle with feature extraction under complex lighting conditions and background variations. Moreover, the feature distributions of live and spoofed samples often overlap, resulting in suboptimal classification performance. To address these issues, we propose a jointly optimized framework integrating the Enhanced Channel Attention (ECA) mechanism and the Intra-Class Differentiator (ICD). The ECA module extracts features through deep convolution, while the Bottleneck Reconstruction Module (BRM) employs a channel compression–expansion mechanism to refine spatial feature selection. Furthermore, the channel attention mechanism enhances key channel representation. Meanwhile, the ICD mechanism enforces intra-class compactness and inter-class separability, optimizing feature distribution both within and across classes, thereby improving feature learning and generalization performance. Experimental results show that our framework achieves average classification error rates (ACERs) of 2.45%, 1.16%, 1.74%, and 2.17% on the CASIA-SURF, CASIA-SURF CeFA, CASIA-FASD, and OULU-NPU datasets, outperforming existing methods.
