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.

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.

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 ...

We have found a way to add specially designed noise to digital photographs or videos that are not visible to human eyes but can fool the face detection algorithms.

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 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 ...

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