Face presentation attack detection (PAD) has become a thorny problem for biometric systems and numerous countermeasures have been proposed to address it. However, majority of them directly extract feature descriptors and distinguish fake…
Person re-identification is critical in surveillance applications. Current approaches rely on appearance based features extracted from a single or multiple shots of the target and candidate matches. These approaches are at a disadvantage…
An iris recognition system is vulnerable to presentation attacks, or PAs, where an adversary presents artifacts such as printed eyes, plastic eyes, or cosmetic contact lenses to circumvent the system. In this work, we propose an effective…
Face recognition systems have become increasingly vulnerable to security threats in recent years, prompting the use of Face Anti-spoofing (FAS) to protect against various types of attacks, such as phone unlocking, face payment, and…
In recent years, the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) systems has raised concerns about our ability to ensure their fairness, that is, how to avoid discrimination based on protected characteristics such as gender, race, or…
The proliferation of face forgery techniques has raised significant concerns within society, thereby motivating the development of face forgery detection methods. These methods aim to distinguish forged faces from genuine ones and have…
Facial recognition systems are increasingly deployed by private corporations, government agencies, and contractors for consumer services and mass surveillance programs alike. These systems are typically built by scraping social media…
