On the Effectiveness of Local Binary Patterns in Face Anti-spoofing

Sébastien Marcel, André Anjos, Ivana Chingovska

Spoofing attacks are one of the security traits that biometric recognition systems are proven to be vulnerable to. When spoofed, a biometric recognition system is bypassed by presenting a copy of the biometric evidence of a valid user. Among all biometric ...

LBP-TOP based countermeasure against face spoofing attacks

Sébastien Marcel, André Anjos, Tiago De Freitas Pereira

User authentication is an important step to protect information and in this eld face biometrics is advantageous. Face biometrics is natural, easy to use and less human-invasive. Unfortunately, recent work has revealed that face biometrics is vulnerable to ...

Counter-Measures to Photo Attacks in Face Recognition: a public database and a baseline

Sébastien Marcel, André Anjos

A common technique to by-pass 2-D face recognition systems is to use photographs of spoofed identities. Unfortunately, research in counter-measures to this type of attack have not kept-up - even if such threats have been known for nearly a decade, there se ...

Competition on Counter Measures to 2-D Facial Spoofing Attacks

Sébastien Marcel, André Anjos, Murali Mohan Chakka, Zhiwei Zhang

Spoofing identities using photographs is one of the most common techniques to attack 2-D face recognition systems. There seems to exist no comparative studies of different techniques using the same protocols and data. The motivation behind this competition ...

On the Results of the First Mobile Biometry (MOBIO) Face and Speaker Verification Evaluation

Sébastien Marcel, Norman Hoon Thian Poh

This paper evaluates the performance of face and speaker verification techniques in the context of a mobile environment. The mobile environment was chosen as it provides a realistic and challenging test-bed for biometric person verification techniques to o ...

Multimodal Biometrics for Identity Documents

Jonas Richiardi, Andrzej Drygajlo

The MBioID initiative has been set up to address the following germane question: What and how biometric technologies could be deployed in identity documents in the foreseeable future? This research effort proposes to look at current and future practices an ...

Face authentication based on local features and generative models

The principal objective of this thesis is to investigate approaches toward a robust automatic face authentication (AFA) system in weakly constrained environments. In this context, we develop new algorithms based on local features and generative models. In ...

Error Handling in Multimodal Biometric Systems using Reliability Measures

In this paper, we present a framework for predicting and correcting classification decision errors based on modality reliability measures in a multimodal biometric system. In our experiments we use face and speech experts based on a recently proposed frame ...

Multi-Modal Data Fusion for Person Authentication using SVM

In the context of multi-modal person authentication, a set of experts (face recognizer, speaker recognizer, etc. ) give their opinion about the identity of an individual. The opinions of the experts can be combined to form a final decision (rejecting or ac ...
