From Measurement to Mitigation: Quantifying and Reducing Identity Leakage in Image Representation Encoders with Linear Subspace Removal
arXiv:2604.05296v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Frozen visual embeddings (e.g., CLIP, DINOv2/v3, SSCD) power retrieval and integrity systems, yet their use on face-containing data is constrained by unmeasured identity leakage and a lack of deployable …
