Abstract
The lack of interpretability of Deep Learning models hinders their deployment in clinical contexts. Case-based explanations can be used to justify these models' decisions and improve their trustworthiness. However, providing medical cases as explanations may threaten the privacy of patients. We propose a generative adversarial network to disentangle identity and medical features from images. Using this network, we can alter the identity of an image to anonymize it while preserving relevant explanatory features. As a proof of concept, we apply the proposed model to biometric and medical datasets, demonstrating its capacity to anonymize medical images while preserving explanatory evidence and a reasonable level of intelligibility. Finally, we demonstrate that the model is inherently capable of generating counterfactual explanations.

Abstract
This paper presents a summary of the Competition on Face Morphing Attack Detection Based on Privacy-aware Synthetic Training Data (SYN-MAD) held at the 2022 International Joint Conference on Biometrics (IJCB 2022). The competition attracted a total of 12 participating teams, both from academia and industry and present in 11 different countries. In the end, seven valid submissions were submitted by the participating teams and evaluated by the organizers. The competition was held to present and attract solutions that deal with detecting face morphing attacks while protecting people's privacy for ethical and legal reasons. To ensure this, the training data was limited to synthetic data provided by the organizers. The submitted solutions presented innovations that led to outperforming the considered baseline in many experimental settings. The evaluation benchmark is now available at: https://github.com/marcohuber/SYN-MAD-2022.
