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. Alex La Ferla.

"Even if the algorithms improve in the future, biometric surveillance like face recognition is dangerous and invasive," Greer said. "Lawmakers everywhere should take action to ban the use of this ...

Back in 2001, two computer scientists, Paul Viola and Michael Jones, triggered a revolution in the field of computer face detection. After years of stagnation, their breakthrough was an algorithm ...

“An ultimate face recognition algorithm should perform with billions of people in a dataset,” the researchers wrote. About the Author. Adrienne LaFrance. Follow.

The NIST test challenged algorithms to verify that two photos showed the same face, similar to how a border agent would check passports. At sensitivity settings where Idemia’s algorithms falsely ...

For example, in the example above, object recognition takes a significant amount of time of processing a single frame, and thus is a candidate for further parallelism and optimization. With the Intel ...

Face-mask recognition has arrived—for better or worse. New algorithms can police whether people are complying with public health guidance. The practice raises familiar questions about data privacy.

The principle behind face detection is relatively simple, even if the math involved can be complex. Most people have two eyes, eyebrows, a nose and lips — and an algorithm can be trained to look ...
