4. Facial recognition systems are computer-based
security systems that are able to automatically
detect and identify human faces.
The development stage for facial recognition
began in the late 1980s and commercially
available systems were made available in the
1990s. While many people first heard about
facial recognition after September
11th, 2001, football fans were introduced to it
at the 2004 Super Bowl.

5. How Does It Works?
The first step for a facial recognition system
is to recognize a human face and extract it
fro the rest of the scene.
Next, the system measures nodal points on
the face, (such as the distance between the
eyes, the shape of the cheekbones and other
distinguishable features.)
6. These nodal points are then compared to
the nodal points computed from a database
of pictures in order to find a match

– Zoom out to overwatch the scene, and zoom in
to track down an intruding object;
– Easy installation and an ideal operation mode.
7. Template Matching Method
Store a template
– Predefined: based on edges or regions
Deformable: based on facial contours (e.g., Snakes)
Templates are hand-coded (not learned)
Use correlation to locate faces
8. Pros Of Face Recognition System
Typically used in security systems and can be
compared to other biometrics such
as fingerprint or eye iris recognition systems
Face recognition systems can be installed to
require a person to explicitly step up to a camera
and get their picture taken, or to automatically
survey people as they pass by a camera. The
later mode allows for scanning of many people
at the same time

11. Such systems may be fooled by
hats, beards, sunglasses and face masks
Even changes of lighting and camera angle
can have a significant effect on the accuracy
of 2D systems
Some people view mass-scale facial
recognition cameras as the ultimate “big
brother.”
13. Where Can You Find It?
Mostly installed at (indoor)
exits, entrances, passages;
In addition to motion-sensitive analytics, also
powered by face detection module for quick
capture of human faces in the scene;
ATM machines-Face recognition at ATM
machines prevents fraud identification and
eliminates the usage of a personal
identification number (PIN)
15. Recent Improvement
In 2010, the performance of the latest face
recognition algorithms were evaluated in
the Face Recognition Grand Challenge (FRGC).
High-resolution face images, 3-D face
scans, and iris images were used in the tests.
The results indicated that the new algorithms
are 10 times more accurate than the face
recognition algorithms of 2002 and 100 times
more accurate than those of 1995. Some of the
algorithms were able to outperform human
participants in recognizing faces and could
uniquely identify identical twins
