DeepFace Uncovered as an Intelligent Face Recognition Software by Facebook
It is a well know fact that software cannot be more intelligent than humans when it comes to identifying people in photos. You may find plenty of facial recognition software that will claim that they can identify the persons with high precision. Facebook is also advancing forward in the race of developing facial recognition software. The popular social media identifies the face of the persons in your photos for suggesting the tags for you.
The researchers of Facebook published a paper recently that lists down the features of a novel face recognition system popularly known as “DeepFace”. Although, Google+ has similar system, yet DeepFace is step towards the great innovation.
Most of the current facial recognition software is not able to recognize the persons from blurred or unclear photos. Even if the face is slightly tilted, the facial recognition software is not cunning enough to tell the right person. DeepFace uses artificial-intelligence technology, known as ‘Deep Learning’ to create 3D models of the faces included in the photos, and then analyzes them.
Deep learning systems act in pretty much the similar way as the neurons in the brain to process the large collection of data, and perform linkages of the information. The DeepFace system performs its in-depth analysis based on more than 120 million different factors.
DeepFace could also play a great role as facial recognition security software to identify the potential intruders in large business centers and shopping malls. The database could store the faces of the criminals on the record, and it would identify them as soon as they enter into specific buildings in which the intelligent facial recognition security software is installed.
No doubt, DeepFace has minimized the gap between human intelligence and the ability of machines to perform smart functionalities.
