Deep Models and Shortwave Infrared Information to Detect Face Presentation Attacks

Sébastien Marcel, Zohreh Mostaani, Guillaume Heusch

This paper addresses the problem of face presentation attack detection using different image modalities. In particular, the usage of short wave infrared (SWIR) imaging is considered. Face presentation attack detection is performed using recent models based ...

A Comprehensive Experimental and Reproducible Study on Selfie Biometrics in Multistream and Heterogeneous Settings

Sébastien Marcel, Guillaume Heusch, Tiago De Freitas Pereira

This contribution presents a new database to address current challenges in face recognition. It contains face video sequences of 75 individuals acquired either through a laptop webcam or when mimicking the front-facing camera of a smartphone. Sequences hav ...

A reproducible study on remote heart rate measurement

Sébastien Marcel, André Anjos, Guillaume Heusch

This paper studies the problem of reproducible research in remote photoplethysmography (rPPG). Most of the work published in this domain is assessed on privately-owned databases, making it difficult to evaluate proposed algorithms in a standard and princip ...

Bayesian networks as generative models for face recognition

Guillaume Heusch

In this thesis, we address the problem of face modelling by using dedicated statistical generative models, with an application to the face authentication task. Face authentication consists in either accepting or rejecting a user's claim supported by its fa ...

A novel statistical generative model dedicated to face recognition

Sébastien Marcel, Guillaume Heusch

In this paper, a novel statistical generative model to describe a face is presented, and is applied to the face authentication task. Classical generative models used so far in face recognition, such as Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) and Hidden Markov Model ...

On the Recent Use of Local Binary Patterns for Face Authentication

Sébastien Marcel, Yann Rodriguez, Guillaume Heusch

This paper presents a survey on the recent use of Local Binary Patterns (LBPs) for face recognition. LBP is becoming a popular technique for face representation. It is a non-parametric kernel which summarizes the local spacial structure of an image and it ...
