Meet the new face-detection algorithm that will change image search If you don’t want this algorithm to identify you, stay away from cameras.

The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity hopes the organization’s new Face Recognition Prize Challenge will help them move the needle on biometric security.

Face detection software has slowly crept into mainstream use, from Facebook photo tagging to Android phone unlocking, but new research looks set to move the technology on significantly. Scientists ...

WiMi's face recognition algorithm system automatically learns the high-level features of the image, improving the accuracy and robustness of face recognition. Its training is performed end-to-end ...

The nation's top-level intelligence office, the Director of National Intelligence, wants to find "the most accurate unconstrained face recognition algorithm." A branch of the office, which ...

Coronavirus face masks can confuse facial recognition technology, government researchers announced Monday after a preliminary study on the issue. Facial recognition algorithms developed before the ...

NIST is widely considered the leading authority on facial recognition accuracy testing, and expected algorithms to improve on identifying people in face masks.

Face masks are already known to stop the spread of coronavirus. Apparently, they can also make it much harder for facial-recognition software to identify you, too.
