  • Patent number: 11971924
    Abstract: A processor-implemented liveness test method includes detecting a face region in a query image, the query image including a test object for a liveness test, determining a liveness test condition to be applied to the test object among at least one liveness test condition for at least one registered user registered in a registration database, determining at least one test region in the query image based on the detected face region and the determined liveness test condition, obtaining feature data of the test object from image data of the determined at least one test region using a neural network-based feature extractor, and determining a result of the liveness test based on the obtained feature data and registered feature data registered in the registration database and corresponding to the determined liveness test condition.

  • Patent number: 10548515
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method for generating personal identification information using an electrocardiogram and a method for identifying a person using the personal identification information. The methods dramatically increase an identification rate by using two-dimensional image data converted from an electrocardiogram signal as personal identification information, and enable real-time identification by reducing a calculation amount by converting only a single electrocardiogram cycle into the two-dimensional image data.

  • Publication number: 20080065380
    Abstract: A speaker recognition method and apparatus are provided. In the speaker recognition method, basic data and voice data of a speaker are received using contents that constantly request the speaker to constantly response using the speaker's voice. Then, a voice of the speaker is extracted from voice data, and a feature vector for recognition is extracted from the voice of the speaker. Based on the extracted feature vector, a speaker model is created. Then, a speaker stored in a speaker model is recognized based on information analyzed from input voice.
