The accuracy of face recognition skyrocketed in past years and its robustness towards various covariates has been shown, such as variations in pose or age. In recent years, a considerable amount of research efforts has been devoted to cross-domain face recognition aiming at comparing facial images o…
Lossy face image compression can degrade the image quality and the utility for the purpose of face recognition. This work investigates the effect of lossy image compression on a state-of-the-art face recognition model, and on multiple face image quality assessment models. The analysis is conducted o…
"The robustness and generalization ability of Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) methods is critical to ensure the security of Face Recognition Systems (FRSs). However, in a real scenario, Presentation Attacks (PAs) are various and it is hard to predict the Presentation Attack Instrument (PAI) spec…
In recent years, morphing of facial images has arisen as an important attack vector on biometric systems. Detection of morphed images has proven challenging for automated systems and human experts alike. Likewise, in recent years, the importance of efficient (fast) biometric identification has been…
The vast majority of text-independent speaker recognition systems rely on intermediate-sized vectors (i-vectors), which are compared by probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA). This paper proposes a PLDA-alike approach with restricted Boltzmann machines for i-vector based speaker recogniti…
The vast majority of speaker recognition cross-entropy evaluations are focused on score domain. By examining the generalized relative distance between genuine and impostor sub-spaces, biometric characteristics become comparable to other authentication approaches. In this paper we demonstrate that th…
