Gates predicts that face recognition technology will win future market

Foreword: With the rapid development of computer technology, face recognition technology has been widely researched and developed. Recently, the database of China's largest programmer community CSDN has been attacked by hackers, and more than 6 million users' information has been leaked. In this context, NetEase announced in Hangzhou on December 22 that through long-term research, Netease’s self-developed face recognition system has achieved breakthroughs in core technology, which will fill a gap in the Internet field. Face recognition system market is rising.

Face recognition system market analysis Face recognition technology is based on the face of the main organs, such as the eyes, nose, mouth and other locations and sizes and other characteristics, the input face image or video stream, through the database with known By comparing faces, you can accurately identify the information of the identified objects. A simple automatic face recognition system includes the following four aspects:

(1) Face Detection: It detects the presence of a human face and determines its position from various scenes.

(2) Normalization of human faces: Correcting changes in human face in terms of scale, lighting, and rotation.

(3) Face representation: Take some measure to detect the face and the known face in the database.

(4) Face recognition: Compare the face to be identified with the known face in the database to obtain relevant information.

In China, face recognition technology is involved in such areas as national security, military security, finance, public security, justice, civil affairs, customs, borders, ports, civil aviation, insurance, social security, and civil security. The current major applications are face recognition attendance, face recognition access control, face recognition authentication, monitoring deployment and so on.

Compared with the traditional magnetic card recognition technology, the face recognition technology does not need to carry any certification card, and cannot be replaced. Compared with biological recognition such as sound, fingerprint, and iris, face recognition technology also has great advantages in accuracy, simplicity, convenience, non-contact, and active recognition. All of these advantages provide the foundation for the application and development of China's face recognition technology. With the development of science and technology and the comprehensive application of various technical means, face recognition technology will continue to develop, and more and more The field plays a more important role.

Face recognition technology in the civil field has been widely used. In order to ensure the health and property safety of some high-end office establishments in China, a face recognition technology that is used in particular can actually be a good preventive measure and be truly unfamiliar. People say "no" effect. This kind of technology treats people's faces as identity cards and can identify visitors more efficiently and accurately. This face recognition technology has advantages over other technologies.

Over the years, the trend of trafficking in children has intensified in order to protect the safety of children in cities. Some kindergartens and elementary schools have installed facial recognition systems to protect children's safety. These systems use face recognition plus IC/ID card (contactless smart card) dual authentication: Each child registers when enrolled in school: data, faces, IC/ID card numbers, pick-up and drop-off, pick-up and drop-off faces. Each time when entering the park, it will be reported by credit card, swiping the card and sending the parent face authentication when picking up the school. If the authentication fails, the administrator will be notified by the police. If the authentication is successful, the photo will be released. Whether the recognition is successful or not, the system will record the image of the recognized person. Each transfer has detailed time and photos of pick-up and drop-off staff. In addition, the system provides an extension function of SMS prompts. Parents can see the photos taken by the face recognition authentication on the mobile phone so as to monitor the transfer process! One of the important sources has eliminated the possibility of children being abducted.

Face recognition technology can be applied to access control. In this world, almost all doors have a lock. Of course, in many areas where safety requirements are high, such as financial institutions, customs, government office buildings, prisons, villas, garden communities, stadiums, and even important construction sites, a large number of people are required to conduct identity-based access control. management. The face recognition access control system provides safer and more convenient access control for these places.

Face recognition technology can be applied to attendance management. Most companies need attendance management. Compared with other attendance methods, face recognition attendance has many advantages. For example, compared to fingerprint recognition attendance, recognition is faster and more accurate. Higher, non-contact recognition is more hygienic. Compared with punching attendance, it is not necessary to bring a card to be more convenient. At the same time, it can eliminate the phenomenon of “punch on behalf of card” in punching attendance. Face recognition attendance, with its unparalleled advantages, will surely provide enterprises, institutions, industrial and mining companies with more convenient and more efficient attendance management.

Conclusion Bill Gates once predicted that biometric technology will become an important innovation in the IT industry in the coming years. Biometric identification technology is currently the most convenient and safe identification technology. It identifies the person itself and does not need any other identifier outside the body. Face recognition is considered to be one of the most difficult research topics in the field of biometrics and even artificial intelligence. Face recognition technology is just like the rising sun in the country. Leaders in the industry are gradually providing and perfecting a package of product solutions. , Strive to promote and popularize a new work life habits and methods, making face recognition in the security monitoring application market has a bright future.
