The winning algorithm likely will strike that balance between speed and volume. Deep learning could be a key to help identify that sweet spot. “That has been the turbocharger in face recognition,” ...

The Face Detection Algorithm Set to Revolutionize Image Search The ability to spot faces from any angle, and even when partially occluded, has always been a uniquely human capability.

The new algorithm, written by Sachin Farfade, Mohammad Saberian, and Li-Jia Li, relies on advances in a type of machine learning called deep convolutional neural network.

Face-mask recognition has arrived—for better or worse New algorithms can police whether people are complying with public health guidance. The practice raises familiar questions about data privacy.

Deep learning applications There are many examples of problems that currently require deep learning to produce the best models. Natural language processing (NLP) is a good one. In Fall 2016, the ...

Face detection software has slowly crept into mainstream use, from Facebook photo tagging to Android phone unlocking, but new research looks set to move the technology on significantly. Scientists ...

Facial recognition is becoming more accurate, but some systems exhibit racial bias and some uses of the technology are controversial Can Big Brother identify your face from street-level CCTV ...
