  • Patent number: 12235945
    Abstract: Two-dimensional face presentation attacks are one of most notorious and pervasive face spoofing types, causing security issues to facial authentication systems. To tackle these issues, a cost-effective face anti-spoofing (FAS) system based on acoustic modality, named as Echo-FAS, is devised, which employs a crafted acoustic signal to probe the presented face. First, a large-scale, high-diversity, acoustic-based FAS database, named as Echo-Spoof, is built. Based upon Echo-Spoof, we design a two-branch framework combining global and local frequency features of the presented face to distinguish live vs. spoofing faces. Echo-FAS has the following merits: (1) it only needs one speaker and one microphone; (2) it can capture three-dimensional geometrical information of the presented face and achieve a remarkable FAS performance; and (3) it can be handily allied with RGB-based FAS models to mitigate the overfitting problem in the RGB modality and make the FAS model more accurate and robust.

  • Publication number: 20250037377
    Abstract: This application relates to a precomputed cell display method and apparatus, a computer device, a computer-readable storage medium, and a computer program product. The method includes: displaying, in response to a view space division event triggered for a virtual scene in which a virtual character is located, a limited-view space and a full-view space that are obtained through division in the virtual scene; displaying, corresponding to a navigation mesh of a first space in the limited-view space, a plurality of precomputed cells that extend in a standing direction of the virtual character and that cover the navigation mesh; and displaying, corresponding to a static mesh of a second space in the full-view space, a plurality of precomputed cells that extend in the standing direction of the virtual character and that cover the static mesh of the second space.
