<![CDATA[Facial recognition systems are pivotal in modern applications such as security, healthcare, and public services, where accurate identification is crucial. However, environmental factors, transmission errors, or deliberate obfuscations often degrade facial image quality, leading to misidentification and service disruptions. This study employs Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to address these challenges by reconstructing corrupted or occluded facial images with high fidelity. The proposed methodology integrates advanced GAN architectures, multi-scale feature extraction, and contextual loss functions to enhance reconstruction quality. Six experimental modifications to the GAN model were implemented, incorporating additional residual blocks, enhanced loss functions combining adversarial, perceptual, and reconstruction losses, and skip connections for improved spatial consistency. Extensive testing was conducted using Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) to quantify reconstruction quality, alongside face detection validation using SFace. The final model achieved an average PSNR of 26.93 and an average SSIM of 0.90, with confidence levels exceeding 0.55 in face detection tests, demonstrating its ability to preserve identity and structural integrity under challenging conditions, including occlusion and noise. The results highlight that advanced GAN-based methods effectively restore degraded facial images, ensuring accurate face detection and robust identity preservation. This research provides a significant contribution to facial image processing, offering practical solutions for applications requiring high-quality image reconstruction and reliable facial recognition.]]>
