Two new research papers propose novel methods for assessing face image quality using Vision Transformers (ViTs). The first, ATTN-FIQA, leverages pre-softmax attention scores from pre-trained ViTs to infer image quality without additional training, hypothesizing that attention magnitudes correlate with facial feature distinctiveness. The second paper, EX-FIQA, explores the utility of intermediate representations within ViTs, proposing a score fusion framework that combines predictions from multiple network depths to improve quality assessment accuracy and efficiency.
