Protego: User-Centric Pose-Invariant Privacy Protection Against Face Recognition-Induced Digital Footprint Exposure

Published in CVPR, 2026

Protego encapsulates a user’s 3D facial signatures into a pose-invariant 2D representation, which is dynamically deformed into a natural-looking 3D mask tailored to the pose and expression of any facial image of the user, and applied prior to online sharing. Motivated by a critical limitation of existing methods, Protego amplifies the sensitivity of FR models so that protected images cannot be matched even among themselves.

TRivia: Self-supervised Fine-tuning of Vision-Language Models for Table Recognition

Published in CVPR, 2026

TRivia is a self-supervised fine-tuning method that enables pretrained vision-language models to learn table recognition directly from unlabeled table images in the wild. Built upon Group Relative Policy Optimization, TRivia automatically identifies unlabeled samples that most effectively facilitate learning and eliminates the need for human annotations through a question-answering-based reward mechanism.
