DiffClean: Diffusion-based Makeup Removal for Accurate Age Estimation
Accurate age verification can protect underage users from unauthorized access to online platforms and e-commerce sites that provide age-restricted services. However, accurate age estimation can be confounded by several factors, including facial makeup that can induce changes to alter perceived identity and age to fool both humans and machines. In this work, we propose DiffClean which erases makeup traces using a text-guided diffusion model to defend against makeup attacks. DiffClean improves ag…

Was die Lippische Landes-Zeitung (LZ) mit einem Interviewpartner gemacht hat, ist ein eklatanter Verstoß gegen journalistische Prinzipien. Nachdem eine Redakteurin mit dem AfD-Kandidaten für das Bürgermeisteramt in Extertal, Jirka Möller, gesprochen hatte, meldete die Redaktion ihn den Behörden, da Aussagen fielen, die „verfassungswidrig sein oder rechtsextremistische Tendenzen des Interviewten offenbaren könnten.“ Der Chefredakteur hat mir den Vorgang bestätigt, möchte aber nicht…

According to Zionists, people who don’t want children killed are antisemitic. People who don’t want civilians killed are antisemitic.
Think what they’re saying:
If you don’t want children killed, you hate all Jews. Ergo, all Jews want children killed.
News flash: Implying that all Jews want children killed is antisemitic.
If you don’t want civilians killed, you hate all Jews. Ergo, all Jews want civilians killed.

Towards High-Fidelity, Identity-Preserving Real-Time Makeup Transfer: Decoupling Style Generation
We present a novel framework for real-time virtual makeup try-on that achieves high-fidelity, identity-preserving cosmetic transfer with robust temporal consistency. In live makeup transfer applications, it is critical to synthesize temporally coherent results that accurately replicate fine-grained makeup and preserve user's identity. However, existing methods often struggle to disentangle semitransparent cosmetics from skin tones and other identify features, causing identity shifts and raising…

More than One Step at a Time: Designing Procedural Feedback for Non-visual Makeup Routines
Makeup plays a vital role in self-expression, identity, and confidence - yet remains an underexplored domain for assistive technology, especially for people with vision impairments. While existing tools support isolated tasks such as color identification or product labeling, they rarely address the procedural complexity of makeup routines: coordinating step sequences, managing product placement, and assessing the final look with accessible feedback. To understand the real-world process, we cond…

A New Three-Players Auction Bridge with Dynamic Opponents and Team Members
This article presents a new three-player version of the bridge playing card game for the purpose of ending fixed partnerships so that the play can be more dynamic and flexible. By dynamically redefining team makeup in real time, this game design increases unpredictability and forces players to repeatedly update strategy. A novel scoring system is introduced to reduce biases present in conventional rule-based games by favoring fairness via reward systems that enforce tactical decision making and…
