We recently presented new results using our large-scale feature search approach on the “Labeled Faces in the Wild” face recognition challenge set, yielding state-of-the-art performance.
For more information, see the corresponding paper.
I’m helping to organize a workshop at the IEEE Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition conference this year in Colorado Springs on “Biologically Consistent Computer Vision.” We received an impressive array of submissions, and the workshop promises to be a good opportunity for those interested in biologically-inspired vision to come together and share ideas. See the workshop site for more details.
I participated today in an interesting discussion about face recognition technology and related privacy issues on National Public Radio with host Marty Moss-Coane and U Penn Law Professor Anita Allen. Thanks to the entire Radio Times crew at WHYY for the stimulating discussion.
