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 ...

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 ...

The detection phase of facial recognition starts with an algorithm that learns what a face is. Usually the creator of the algorithm does this by “training” it with photos of faces.

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.

A new study from the National Institute of Standards and Technology found facial recognition algorithms developed pre-pandemic struggle to identify masked faces.

What is face recognition? Face recognition is a method for identifying an unknown person or authenticating the identity of a specific person from their face.
