Face Identification
Face identification is the task of matching a given face image to one in an existing database of faces. It is the second part of face recognition (the first part being detection). It is a one-to-many mapping: you have to find an unknown person in a database to find who that person is.

ArcFace: Additive Angular Margin Loss for Deep Face Recognition
CVPR 2019
• deepinsight/insightface
• 
One of the main challenges in feature learning using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) for large-scale face recognition is the design of appropriate loss functions that enhance discriminative power.
SphereFace: Deep Hypersphere Embedding for Face Recognition
CVPR 2017

FacePoseNet: Making a Case for Landmark-Free Face Alignment
Instead, we compare our FPN with existing methods by evaluating how they affect face recognition accuracy on the IJB-A and IJB-B benchmarks: using the same recognition pipeline, but varying the face alignment method.

Ring loss: Convex Feature Normalization for Face Recognition
CVPR 2018
• Paralysis/ringloss

Git Loss for Deep Face Recognition
• kjanjua26/Git-Loss-For-Deep-Face-Recognition
•
Conventionally, CNNs have been trained with softmax as supervision signal to penalize the classification loss.

CosFace: Large Margin Cosine Loss for Deep Face Recognition
CVPR 2018
• cvqluu/Angular-Penalty-Softmax-Losses-Pytorch
•
More specifically, we reformulate the softmax loss as a cosine loss by $L_2$ normalizing both features and weight vectors to remove radial variations, based on which a cosine margin term is introduced to further maximize the decision margin in the angular space.
