Researchers have developed MorphUNet, a novel diffusion-based framework for generating face morphing attacks. This method utilizes alpha-controlled biometric transport, separating appearance and identity evidence from parent faces into distinct token banks. MorphUNet employs a unique Biometric Transport Layer within its denoising U-Net, allowing for separate attention to each parent before combining their contributions. Evaluations show MorphUNet outperforms existing methods in fooling recognition systems and maintaining image quality, while also demonstrating robustness against unseen identities across various demographic pairings.
