Facial recognition algorithm should be able to work even when the similar looking people are found i.e. also in the extreme case of identical looking twins. An experimental data set which contains 40 images of 20 pairs of twins collected randomly from the internet. The training is done with the selected images of the twins using different training algorithms and inbuilt functions available. The extracted features are stored over the Amazon public cloud. As a part of testing phase random images from the dataset trained are selected and upon running it over the system we get the features of those images which then will be compared by extracting the features already stored in Amazon cloud. The stored values and the current image features are compared and result will be displayed on the GUI. Identical twin’s facial recognition system uses the machine learning, image processing algorithms and deep learning algorithms. Regardless of the conditions of the images acquired, distinguishing identical twins is significantly harder than distinguishing faces that are not identical twins for all the algorithms.

Abstract. Four experiments were conducted investigating the effect of size congruency on facial recognition memory, measured by remember, know and guess responses. Different study times were employed, that is extremely short (300 and 700 ms), short (1,000 ms), and long times (5,000 ms). With the short study time (1,000 ms) size congruency occurred in knowing. With the long study time the effect of size congruency occurred in remembering. These results support the distinctiveness/fluency account of remembering and knowing as well as the memory systems account, since the size congruency effect that occurred in knowing under conditions that facilitated perceptual fluency also occurred independently in remembering under conditions that facilitated elaborative encoding. They do not support the idea that remember and know responses reflect differences in trace strength.

Judging other people is a common and important task. Every day professionals make decisions that affect the lives of other people when they diagnose medical conditions, grant parole, or hire new employees. To prevent discrimination, professional standards require that decision makers render accurate and unbiased judgments solely based on relevant information. Facial similarity to previously encountered persons can be a potential source of bias. Psychological research suggests that people only rely on similarity-based judgment strategies if the provided information does not allow them to make accurate rule-based judgments. Our study shows, however, that facial similarity to previously encountered persons influences judgment even in situations in which relevant information is available for making accurate rule-based judgments and where similarity is irrelevant for the task and relying on similarity is detrimental. In two experiments in an employment context we show that applicants who looked similar to high-performing former employees were judged as more suitable than applicants who looked similar to low-performing former employees. This similarity effect was found despite the fact that the participants used the relevant résumé information about the applicants by following a rule-based judgment strategy. These findings suggest that similarity-based and rule-based processes simultaneously underlie human judgment.
