The detection of spoofing by 3D mask in a 2D identity recognition system
Nowadays face recognition systems are facing a new problem after having won the challenge of reliability. The problem is that these systems have become vulnerable to attacks by identity theft. In order to deceive the recognition systems hackers use several methods, such as the use of face images or...
