Contactless video based m:n Face Recognition ⃰ How does it work? ⃰ How powerful is it? ⃰ Restrictions and challenges ⃰ Application for borders Gemalto Live Face Identification System 3

How does m:n work? STEP 1: An IP camera takes let’s say 25 frames per second STEP 2: System saves say 1 in 5 frames and makes a scene from them STEP 3: These several (m) images of 1 person are formed to make a model and are matched against models of many (n) people in the hot list Model Database Matching MATCH 4

Accuracy Biometric accuracy is expressed as x% False Reject Rate (FRR) at y% False Acceptance Rate (FAR) Pass score In our internal tests Gemalto’s LFIS system (v4.5) produces 1.95% FRR at 0.1% FAR Means: FRR FAR ⃰ Using a pass score of 2,900 points where 1 person in 1,000 is falsely accepted across the border, ~2 people in 100 will need to be referred to a border guard for checking ⃰ Using a pass score of 3,000 points where 1 person in 10,000 is falsely accepted across the border, ~4 people in 100 will need to be referred to a border guard for checking In tests, human border guards miss ~5-10%, depending on ethnicity of traveller 8

Restrictions and Challenges Restriction Solution Face needs to be visible Need to remove helmets/sunglasses Lighting Darkfighter/Lightfighter* cameras to handle poor illumination Face at a long distance 48 pixels between the eyes is achievable with multiple high res cameras Angle of pitch and pose from camera to face Position cameras carefully Need an algorithm not restricted at 15 degree angles Fast moving faces Faster shutter speed Density of crowd Good algorithm Using existing cameras HD or better, ONVIF compliant cameras are generally needed • Darkfighter and Lightfighter are camera brand names from HIKVision. Other brands are available 9
