Face Recognition Technology Guide

This document provides an overview of face recognition technology. It discusses the history of face recognition, which began in the 1960s. It also outlines how face recognition works by capturing images, measuring geometric facial features, calculating a formula to represent the face, and comparing it to images in a database. The document lists applications such as security, immigration, and banking. It discusses advantages like improved security and speed, and disadvantages like data storage needs and accuracy issues. The conclusion states that face recognition will have many applications in smart environments.

INTRODUCTION:
It is a category of biometric software for automatic
identification.
It makes use the most usual human identifier,face and
unique facial characteristics.
It was invented by
WOODROW WILSON
BLEDSOE
HISTORY:
The earliest pioneers of facial recognition were Wood
Bledsoe,Helen Chan Wolf and Charles Bisson.
In 1964 and 1965,Beldsoe along with Wolf and Bisson
began work using computers to recognise the human face.
EBL approach by Sung and Poggio(1994)
The neural network
approach by Rowley
etal(1998).
Face Recognition Vendor
Test(2002)
Face Recognition Grand
Challenges(2006)

BISSON
IMPLEMENTATION:
The implementation of face recognition technology
includes the following stages:
•Image acquisation
•Image processing
•Distinctive characteristic location
•Template matching
•Template creation
 These nodal points are measured creating a numerical

code,called a face print,


representing the face in
the database.
HOW IT WORKS:
Step-1: Captures images or vedios.
Step-2: Reads the geometric measurements on the face.
Step-3: Calculates a mathematical formula for the captured
face.
Step-4: Compares it with the image in the database.
APPLICATIONS:
Government use:
a)Security/Counterterrorism
b)Immigration
c)Voter verification
Commercial use:
a)Day care
b)Residential security
c)Banking using ATM
Fraud detection
Payments
Healthcare
Advertising
USES:
It can be used for a multitude of applications,from
security to advertisements.Here are some of them:
Mobile phone manufactures,such as Apple,for consumer
security.
Modernizing public safety
Creating a better shopping experience
Streamlining customer service
Diagnosing rare diseases
Tracking school attendance
Locating lost pets
Unlock phones
Prevent Retail crime
Find missing persons
ADVANTAGES:
 No need to physically contact a device for authentication
purpose.
Improved level of security.
High security
High accuracy
Fully automated
Low invasiveness
High speed
Identification support system
DISADVANTAGES:
Scarce Data Storage
Insufficient camera angle
Not as accurate as other biometrics
Large amounts of storage needed
Good quality of images required
Can’t tell differance between identical twins
Problem when the person change the hairstyle,shave or
beard or wear glasses.
SECURITY:
Currently there are no laws in United States that
specially protect an individual’s biometric data.
This is being studied or deployed for airport security.

Data from facial recognition system may be captured


and stored and an individual may not even know it.
This information can be accessed by hackers.
CONCLUSION:
A face recognition system must be able to recognise a
face in many different imaging situations.
It will find faces efficiently without exhaustively
searching the image.

Face recognition systems are going to have widespread


application in smart environments.
