Foundation Models for Face Presentation Attack Detection: A Unified Linear-Probing Benchmark

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.26993v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Face presentation attack detection (PAD) remains challenging under cross-dataset evaluation, where domain shift degrades models trained on a single dataset. The scarcity of large-scale labeled data motivates adapting pretrained vision models rather than training task-specific architectures from scratch, raising a fundamental question: do general-purpose vision foundation models encode PAD-relevant information accessible with minimal task-specific training? To investigate, we systematically evaluate 24 frozen encoders, including self-supervised vision transformers, vision-language encoders, and supervised CNNs, using a unified linear-probing protocol on the MCIO benchmark (MSU-MFSD, CASIA-FASD, Replay-Attack, OULU-NPU). The backbone remain
