  • Patent number: 10922529
    Abstract: A device receives an image-based authentication request from a specified object and performs human face authentication in a manner depending on whether the object wears glasses. Specifically, the device designates a glasses region on a daily photograph of the specified object using a glasses segmentation model. If the regions of the human face in the daily photograph labeled as glasses exceed a first threshold amount, the device modifies the daily photograph by changing pixel values of the regions that are labeled as being obscured by glasses. The device extracts features of a daily human face from the daily photograph and features of an identification human face from the identification photograph. The device approves the authentication request if a matching degree between the features of the daily human face and the features of the identification human face is greater than a second threshold amount.

  • Patent number: 10909356
    Abstract: A facial tracking method can include receiving a first vector of a first frame, and second vectors of second frames that are prior to the first frame in a video. The first vector is formed by coordinates of first facial feature points in the first frame and determined based on a facial registration method. Each second vector is formed by coordinates of second facial feature points in the respective second frame and previously determined based on the facial tracking method. A second vector of the first frame is determined according to a fitting function based on the second vectors of the first set of second frames. The fitting function has a set of coefficients that are determined by solving a problem of minimizing a function formulated based on a difference between the second vector and the first vector of the current frame, and a square sum of the coefficients.
