  • 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.

  • Patent number: 10504202
    Abstract: A method for identifying whether a standard picture contains a watermark is provided. After obtaining a set of sample standard pictures, one or more sample pictures in the set of sample standard pictures are adjusted to a preset size. The sample pictures in the set of sample standard pictures do not contain watermark information. Next, an average of pixel attribute values of the sample pictures at pixel positions of the preset size is calculated. The average of the pixel attribute values at the pixel positions of the preset size is normalized to obtain the watermark-presence probabilities of the pixel positions of the preset size. Then, a target picture is adjusted to the preset size and a sum of products of pixel attribute values of the target picture at the pixel positions of the preset size and the corresponding watermark-presence probability are calculated. Finally, it is determined whether the target picture contains a watermark according to the sum of products.
