Facial recognition has become more widespread and accurate in recent years, as an artificial intelligence technology called deep learning made computers much better at interpreting images ...

Demographic bias gaps are closing in face recognition, but how training images are sourced is becoming the field’s biggest privacy fight.

Face-mask recognition has arrived—for better or worse New algorithms can police whether people are complying with public health guidance. The practice raises familiar questions about data privacy.

Researchers have developed a new computational model of the human brain's face-recognition mechanism that seems to capture aspects of human neurology that previous models have missed.

The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is piloting facial recognition technologies that can see through face masks with a "promising" level of accuracy, meaning that travelers could end up ...

In most discussions, deep learning means using deep neural networks. There are, however, a few algorithms that implement deep learning using other kinds of hidden layers besides neural networks.

Most image recognition algorithms require lots of labeled pictures. This new approach eliminates the need for most of the labeling.
