ID-Sim: An Identity-Focused Similarity Metric

ArXi:2604.05039v1 Announce Type: cross Humans have remarkable selective sensitivity to identities -- easily distinguishing between highly similar identities, even across significantly different contexts such as diverse viewpoints or lighting. Vision models have struggled to match this capability, and progress toward identity-focused tasks such as personalized image generation is slowed by a lack of identity-focused evaluation metrics. To help facilitate progress, we propose ID-Sim, a feed-forward metric designed to faithfully reflect human selective sensitivity.
