The biometric system is a security technology that uses information based on a living person's characteristics to verify or recognize the identity, such as facial recognition. Face recognition has numerous applications in the real world, such as access control and surveillance. But face recognition has a security issue of spoofing. A face anti-spoofing, a task to prevent fake authorization by breaching the face recognition systems using a photo, video, mask, or a different substitute for an authorized person's face, is used to overcome this challenge. There is also increasing research of new datasets by providing new types of attack or diversity to reach a better generalization. This paper review of the recent development includes a general understanding of face spoofing, anti-spoofing methods, and the latest development to solve the problem against various spoof types.

Every person's face is unique, although have the same structure such as noise, eyes, lips, etc. but it can vary strikingly. It’s within this variance which lies in the distinguishing characteristics that can be used to identify one person from another. Face recognition is a popular concept which is commonly used in surveillance cameras at public places for security purposes. With the advancement of digital technologies, the demand for security to provide access control is increasing. It uses various methods of authentication to keep all details secure, such as a system focused on encrypted user name & password, smart card, biometrics, etc. The “Face Recognition using DNN with LivenessNet” presents a face recognition method based on deep neural networks for liveness. Any algorithm is considered to be efficient only if it is robust and accurate. It provides accurate results with face spoofing quickly and efficiently. The main advantage of using this technique is identifying the uniqueness in the datasets by capturing the real-time face data through different modes & jitter. It provides accurate face recognition model which can be used for safety and security purpose.

Face recognition in real world applications is a very difficult task because of image misalignments, pose and illumination variations, or occlusions. Many researchers in this field have investigated both face representation and classification techniques able to deal with these drawbacks. However, none of them is free from limitations. Early proposed algorithms were generally holistic, in the sense they consider the face object as a whole. Recently, challenging benchmarks demonstrated that they are not adequate to be applied in unconstrained environments, despite of their good performances in more controlled conditions. Therefore, the researchers' attention is now turning on local features that have been demonstrated to be more robust to a large set of non-monotonic distortions. Nevertheless, though local operators partially overcome some drawbacks, they are still opening new questions (e.g., Which criteria should be used to select the most representative features?). This is the reason why, among all the others, hybrid approaches are showing a high potential in terms of recognition accuracy when applied in uncontrolled settings, as they integrate complementary information from both local and global features. This chapter explores local, global, and hybrid approaches.

Face recognition (FR) has received considerable attention in the field of security, especially in the use of closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras in security monitoring. Although significant advances in the field of computer vision are made, advanced face recognition systems provide satisfactory performance only in controlled conditions. They deteriorate significantly in the face of real-world scenarios such as lighting conditions, motion blur, camera resolution, etc. This article shows how we design, implement, and conduct the empirical comparisons of machine learning open libraries in building attendance taking (AT) support systems using indoor security cameras called ATSS. Our trial system was deployed to record the appearances of 120 students in five classes who study on the third floor of FPT Polytechnic College building. Our design allows for flexible system scaling, and it is not only usable for a school but a generic attendance system with CCTV. The measurement results show that the accuracy is suitable for many different environments.

For face recognition systems, liveness detection can effectively avoid illegal fraud and improve the safety of face recognition systems. Common face attacks include photo printing and video replay attacks. This paper studied the differences between photos, videos, and real faces in static texture and motion information and proposed a living detection structure based on feature fusion and attention mechanism, Dynamic and Texture Fusion Attention Network (DTFA-Net). We proposed a dynamic information fusion structure of an interchannel attention block to fuse the magnitude and direction of optical flow to extract facial motion features. In addition, for the face detection failure of HOG algorithm under complex illumination, we proposed an improved Gamma image preprocessing algorithm, which effectively improved the face detection ability. We conducted experiments on the CASIA-MFSD and Replay Attack Databases. According to experiments, the DTFA-Net proposed in this paper achieved 6.9% EER on CASIA and 2.2% HTER on Replay Attack that was comparable to other methods.

Nowadays, face recognition becomes one of the important topics in the computer vision and image processing area. This is due to its importance where can be used in many applications. The main key in the face recognition is how to extract distinguishable features from the image to perform high recognition accuracy.  Local binary pattern (LBP) and many of its variants used as texture features in many of face recognition systems. Although LBP performed well in many fields, it is sensitive to noise, and different patterns of LBP may classify into the same class that reduces its discriminating property. Completed Local Ternary Pattern (CLTP) is one of the new proposed texture features to overcome the drawbacks of the LBP. The CLTP outperformed LBP and some of its variants in many fields such as texture, scene, and event image classification.  In this study, we study and investigate the performance of CLTP operator for face recognition task. The Japanese Female Facial Expression (JAFFE), and FEI face databases are used in the experiments. In the experimental results, CLTP outperformed some previous texture descriptors and achieves higher classification rate for face recognition task which has reached up 99.38% and 85.22% in JAFFE and FEI, respectively.

While there has been an enormous amount of research on face recognition under pose/illumination/expression changes and image degradations, problems caused by occlusions attracted relatively less attention. Facial occlusions, due, for example, to sunglasses, hat/cap, scarf, and beard, can significantly deteriorate performances of face recognition systems in uncontrolled environments such as video surveillance. The goal of this paper is to explore face recognition in the presence of partial occlusions, with emphasis on real-world scenarios (e.g., sunglasses and scarf). In this paper, we propose an efficient approach which consists of first analysing the presence of potential occlusion on a face and then conducting face recognition on the nonoccluded facial regions based on selective local Gabor binary patterns. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art works including KLD-LGBPHS, S-LNMF, OA-LBP, and RSC. Furthermore, performances of the proposed approach are evaluated under illumination and extreme facial expression changes provide also significant results.

Face is one among the foremost important human's biometrics which is used frequently in every day human communication and due to some of its unique characteristics plays a major role in conveying identity and emotion. So far numerous methods have been proposed for face recognition, but it's still remained very challenging in real world applications and up to date; there is no technique which equals human ability to recognize faces despite many variations in appearance that the face can have in a scene and provides a strong solution to all situations.

Changes in light intensity and angle present a major challenge to the creation of reliable face recognition systems. The existence of bright regions and dark regions has been shown to have a serious negative impact on the performance of face recognition systems. This paper proposes a solution to this problem based on self-quotient image (SQI) processing method. In this method, bright and dark areas are processed separately without changing the essential characteristics of the image of the face. The dark and light areas are processed separately by SQI. Experimental results indicate that this Single-Light-Region and Single-Dark-Region SQI method removes the adverse effect of multi-bright and multi-dark areas better than competing methods.

The face mask is an essential sanitaryware in daily lives growing during the pandemic period and is a big threat to current face recognition systems. The masks destroy a lot of details in a large area of face and it makes it difficult to recognize them even for humans. The evaluation report shows the difficulty well when recognizing masked faces. Rapid development and breakthrough of deep learning in the recent past have witnessed most promising results from face recognition algorithms. But they fail to perform far from satisfactory levels in the unconstrained environment during the challenges such as varying lighting conditions, low resolution, facial expressions, pose variation and occlusions. Facial occlusions are considered one of the most intractable problems. Especially when the occlusion occupies a large region of the face because it destroys lots of official features.
