Recently the need for advanced security technologies are increasing as the occurrence of intelligent crime is growing fastly. Previous liveness detection and fake face detection methods are required for the improvement of accuracy in order to be put to practical use. In this paper, we propose a new liveness detection method using pupil reflection, and new fake image detection using Adaboost detector. The proposed system detects eyes based on multi-scale Gabor feature vector in the first stage, The template matching plays a role in determining the allowed eye area. And then, the reflected image in the pupil is used to decide whether or not the captured image is live or not. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method is superior to the previous methods in the detection accuracy of fake images.

In recent years, there has been developed systems such as a surveillance system and access control using a face recognition function instead of a password or an RFID chip, thereby reducing the risk of falsification. Moreover, deep learning technology has been applied to real-time face recognition technology in video, so it makes possible the development of access control system that improves the accuracy of recognition and efficiency of management. In this paper, we propose a real-time access management system based on face recognition using ResNet. The system is based on web server, which make it possible to manage the access by recognizing the person of the image through the camera and access information stored in the database. It can be accessed by a user application to receive various information. The implemented system identifies a person in real time and allows access control by accurately distinguishing whether they are members or not, and the test results can recognize in 0.2 seconds. The accuracy of recognition rate is up to about 97% depending on the experiment environment. With this system, access can be managed quickly and effectively, even many people rush to it.

Objectives: This pilot study aimed to evaluate the agreement between traditional face-to-face Korean medicine (KM) pattern identification and non-face-to-face KM pattern identification using the data from related questionnaires, tongue image, and pulse features in patients with cancer. Methods: From January to June 2020, 16 participants with a cancer diagnosis were recruited at the one Korean medicine hospital. Three experienced Korean medicine doctors independently diagnosed the participants whether they belong to the cold pattern or not, heat pattern or not, deficiency pattern or not, and excess pattern or not. Another researcher collected KM pattern related data using questionnaires including Cold-Heat Pattern Identification (CHPI), tongue image analysis system, and pulse analyzer. Collected KM pattern related data without participants' identifier was provided for the three Korean medicine doctors in random order, and non-face-to-face KM pattern identification was carried out. The kappa value between face-to-face and non-face-to-face pattern identification was calculated. Results: From the face-to-face pattern identification, there were 13/3 cold/non-cold pattern, 4/12 heat/non-heat pattern, 14/2 deficiency/non-deficiency pattern, and 0/16 excess/non-excess pattern participants. In cold/non-cold pattern, kappa value was 0.455 (sensitivity: 0.85, specificity: 0.67, accuracy: 0.81). In heat/non-heat pattern, the kappa value was 0.429 (sensitivity: 0.75, specificity: 0.72, accuracy: 0.75). The kappa value of deficiency/non-deficiency and excess/non-excess pattern was not calculated because of the few participants of non-deficiency, and excess pattern. Conclusions: The agreement between traditional face-to-face pattern identification and non-face-to-face pattern identification seems to be moderate. The non-face-to-face pattern identification using questionnaires, tongue, and pulse features may feasible for the large clinical study.

Image calibration at preprocessing step is very important for face recognition rate improvement, and background noise deletion affects accuracy of face recognition specially. In this paper, a method is proposed to remove background area utilizing elliptical model at preprocessing step for face recognition rate improvement. As human face has the shape of ellipse, a face contour can be easily detected by using the elliptical model in face images.

Two experiments were conducted to test effects of ethnicity and gender of face stimuli and lineup procedure on face recognition. In experiment 1, all stimuli were frontal male pictures of Southeast Asian and Northeast Asian. It was tested that whether accuracy of face recognition improve when ethnicity of participant and stimulus was identical (own-ethnicity advantage). In experiment 2, the 'own-gender advantage' was tested using images of Northeast Asian's frontal male and female faces. All participants were Northeast Asian. The results showed that the own-ethnicity advantage or the effect of line-up procedure was not found, but accuracy of face recognition was high when target face was Southeast Asian. Interestingly, the own-gender advantages was observed in only case of female participants. It was discussed that face recognition could be affected by attention.

Recently the need for advanced security technologies are increasing as the occurrence of intelligent crime is growing fastly. Previous methods for face disguise detection are required for the improvement of accuracy in order to be put to practical use. In this paper, we propose a new disguise detection method using the template matching and Adaboost algorithm. The proposed system detects eyes based on multi-scale Gabor feature vector in the first stage, and uses template matching technique in oreder to increase the detection accuracy in the second stage. The template matching plays a role in determining whether or not the person of the captured image has sunglasses on. Adaboost algorithm is used to determine whether or not the person of the captured image wears a mask. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method is superior to the previous methods in the detection accuracy of disguise faces.

Practical solutions that are available today for assessing stability of tunnel working face are largely based on the concept of critical stability ratio. The accuracy of a prediction of the soil behavior in the working face, thus, depends on the ability of the solution to completely and accurately describe the stress fields or kinematics generated by the excavation and the accuracy of the undrained shear strength of the soil introduced in the computation. This paper reviews the selected solutions describing stability of the tunnel heading in squeezing ground, and suggests a reference solution which is established based on comparison of the solutions and field data on stability of tunnel headings in clays. Although dealing with the shear strength determination is an important companion part of the geotechnical prediction for stability of the tunnel heading in clays, this part is beyond the scope of this paper at this time.

In this paper, we propose a rotation invariant face detection method using Haar-like feature variation. Previous approaches using rectangular features can be calculated very fast. But rectangular features is weak in rotated face. Rotated Haar-like features can get high accuracy, but the performance is slow because it can't use the integral image. Our method vary Haar-like features keeping rectangular. this method makes the performance a bit slow, but gives better accuracy.

Biometric recognition is one of the major challenging topics which needs high performance of recognition accuracy. Most of existing methods rely on a single source of biometric to achieve recognition. The recognition accuracy in biometrics is affected by the variability of effects, including illumination and appearance variations. In this paper, we propose a new multimodal biometrics recognition using convolutional neural network. We focus on multimodal biometrics from face and periocular regions. Through experiments, we have demonstrated that facial multimodal biometrics features deep learning framework is helpful for achieving high recognition performance.

This paper proposes a method which improves the performance of face detection by using SVM(Support Vector Machine). first, it finds face region candidates by using AdaBoost based object detection method which selects a small number of critical features from a larger set. Next it classifies if the candidate is a face or non-face by using SVM(Support Vector Machine). Experimental results shows that the proposed method improve accuracy of face detection in comparison with existing method.
