Abstract:
A liveness testing apparatus includes a testing circuit. The testing circuit is configured to test a liveness of an object included in a received input image based on whether an image of the object has a characteristic indicative of a flat surface or a characteristic indicative of a three-dimensional (3D) structure.
Abstract:
A fingerprint recognition method includes generating an enrollment modified image by modifying a fingerprint image corresponding to a fingerprint to be enrolled; extracting enrollment property information from the fingerprint image; generating mapping information that maps the enrollment modified image to the enrollment property information; and storing the enrollment modified image and the enrollment property information.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for detecting a fake fingerprint is disclosed. The apparatus may divide an input fingerprint image into blocks, determine an image quality assessment (IQA) value associated with each block, determine a confidence value based on the IQA values using a confidence determination model, and determine whether an input fingerprint in the input fingerprint image is a fake fingerprint based on the determined confidence value.
Abstract:
A user authentication method includes receiving a first input image including information on a first modality; receiving a second input image including information on a second modality; determining at least one first score by processing the first input image based on at least one first classifier, the at least one first classifier being based on the first modality; determining at least one second score by processing the second input image based on at least one second classifier, the at least one second classifier being based on the second modality; and authenticating a user based on the at least one first score, the at least one second score, a first fusion parameter of the at least one first classifier, and a second fusion parameter of the at least one second classifier.
Abstract:
At least one example embodiment discloses a method of extracting a feature of an input image. The method includes constructing an example pyramid including at least one hierarchical level based on stored example images, generating a codebook in each of the at least one hierarchical level, calculating a similarity between the codebook and the input image, and extracting a feature of the input image based on the similarity.
Abstract:
At least some example embodiments disclose a method and apparatus for facial recognition. The facial recognition method includes detecting initial landmarks from a facial image, first normalizing the facial image using the initial landmarks, updating a position of at least one of intermediate landmarks based on the first normalizing, the intermediate landmarks being landmarks transformed from the initial landmarks through the first normalizing, second normalizing the facial image after the updating and recognizing a face using a feature of the second normalized facial image.

Abstract:
A fingerprint recognition based authentication method and apparatus is disclosed. The authentication apparatus may obtain an input fingerprint from a touch input of a user, determine an input number corresponding to the input fingerprint using preregistered fingerprint-number mapping information, and authenticate the user based on whether an input number sequence corresponding to an input fingerprint sequence is identical to a reference number sequence.
Abstract:
A fingerprint recognition method includes generating an enrollment modified image by modifying a fingerprint image corresponding to a fingerprint to be enrolled; extracting enrollment property information from the fingerprint image; generating mapping information that maps the enrollment modified image to the enrollment property information; and storing the enrollment modified image and the enrollment property information.
Abstract:
A fingerprint verification method includes selecting one or more first fingerprint groups from among a plurality of fingerprint groups based on an input fingerprint image, each fingerprint group of the plurality of fingerprint groups including partial fingerprint images; and determining whether verification is successful based on the input fingerprint image and each of the partial fingerprint images included in the one or more first fingerprint groups.
