Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for recognizing an object are disclosed. The apparatus may extract a plurality of features from an input image using a single recognition model and recognize an object in the input image based on the extracted features. The single recognition model may include at least one compression layer configured to compress input information and at least one decompression layer configured to decompress the compressed information to determine the features.
Abstract:
A method of detecting a biometric region, the method including receiving an input image; setting a plurality of regions of interest (ROI) corresponding to a plurality classifiers, respectively, the plurality of classifiers corresponding to a plurality of multi-stages, respectively, the plurality of ROIs having different sizes with respect to each other, each ROI of the plurality of ROIs including a biometric region of the input image; calculating a plurality of similarity values for the plurality of classifiers, respectively, based on the ROIs corresponding to the plurality of classifiers from among the plurality of ROIs; and detecting a first biometric region for a user authentication based on at least one of the plurality of similarity values.
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 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.
