Abstract: A method includes obtaining, by a processing device from an optical sensor of a mobile device, an image of an object. The method further includes processing, by the processing device, the image to identify the object in the image. Processing the image includes calculating at least one of a distance map or a reflection pattern. Processing the image further includes comparing the calculated distance map or the calculated reflection pattern with a known distance map or a known reflection pattern to determine whether the image contains a spoof or a real object. The method further includes obtaining, by the processing device from the image, data including a biometric characteristic of the user. The method further includes sending, by the processing device to a third party computing device, data including at least the biometric characteristic.
Abstract: A method includes obtaining, by a processing device from an optical sensor of a mobile device, an image; processing, by the processing device, the image by using a neural network to identify a position of an object in the image and the object in the image, thereby obtaining an identified object; after processing the image, extracting, by the processing device from the identified object, a biometric characteristic, and providing, by the processing device, at least the biometric characteristic as input to determine whether the biometric characteristic identifies a user.
Abstract: A method includes obtaining, by a processing device from an optical sensor of a mobile device, an image of an object; processing, by the processing device, the image using a neural network, wherein processing the image includes distinguishing, using the neural network, a first portion of the image including a region of interest, ROI, from a second portion of the image, wherein processing the image comprises processing the image by an encoder to obtain an encoded image and processing the encoded image by a decoder to obtain a decoded output image; after processing the image, extracting, by the processing device, a biometric characteristic of the object from the ROI; extracting, by the processing device, a biometric characteristic of the object from the ROI; and processing, by the processing device, the biometric characteristic of the object to determine whether the biometric characteristic of the object identifies a user.

Abstract: A method for distinguishing a real three-dimensional object from a two-dimensional spoof of the real three-dimensional object, the method comprising: obtaining, by an optical sensor of a mobile device, an image containing an object that is either the two-dimensional spoof or the real three-dimensional object; providing the image to a neural network; processing the image by the neural network by calculating: 1) a distance map representative of the distance of pixels to the optical sensor, the pixels constituting at least a portion of the object within the image, or 2) a reflection pattern representative of light reflection associated with pixels constituting at least a portion of the object within the image; comparing the distance map or the reflection pattern with a learned distance map or a learned reflection pattern; and obtaining as a final output a determination the image contains either the two-dimensional spoof or the real three-dimensional object.
Abstract: A method for identifying a user using an image of an object of the user, the method comprising: obtaining, by an optical sensor of a mobile device, the image of the object, wherein the object comprises a biometric characteristic of the user; providing the image to a neural network; processing the image by the neural network to identify-a position of the object and the object in the image; extracting, from the identified object, the biometric characteristic; storing the biometric characteristic in a storage device; and providing at least the biometric characteristic as input to an identification means to determine whether the biometric characteristic identifies the user.
