| 20100128938 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING FORGED FACE USING INFRARED IMAGE - A method for detecting a forged face using an infrared image includes: acquiring an infrared image and a photorealistic image captured by one or two cameras; extracting a face region from the photorealistic image; determining, based on analysis of quality characteristics of the infrared image, whether a current face is a forged face or not; and performing face recognition on the extracted face region if it is determined that the current face is a non-forged face. The method further includes capturing an infrared image and a photorealistic image again through the camera without performing face recognition if it is determined that the current face is a forged face. | 05-27-2010 |
