Patent number: 11645875Abstract: Techniques for detecting anomalies in multispectral image data, and more specifically for detecting presentation attacks by using multispectral image data in biometric security applications, are provided. In some embodiments, a system may receive multispectral image data and generate an estimation of a first image of a plurality of images of the multispectral image data, wherein the estimation is based on other images of the multispectral image data, but not the first image itself. The estimation may then be compared to the first image to generate an indication as to whether the multispectral image data represents a presentation attack. In some embodiments, a system may receive multispectral training image data and may extract features from the data to generate and store a network architecture for predicting relationships of multispectral images of subjects.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2021Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: NOBLIS, INC.Inventors: Mark J. Burge, Jordan Cheney

Publication number: 20200089980Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for performing automated face recognition and comparison. An input image of a face may be received and cropped, and the image may be processed through a deep neural network (DNN) to produce a k-dimensional feature vector. The k-dimensional feature vector may be converted to a k-dimensional binary vector by transforming each value in the vector to either 1 or 0. To search for nearest matches of the image in a database of gallery images of faces, the system may compare sub-strings of the binary vector to hash tables created from sub-strings of the gallery images, enabling sub-linear searching that allows locating the closest matches from among the entire gallery without requiring an exhaustive linear search of the entire gallery.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 19, 2019Publication date: March 19, 2020Applicant: NOBLIS, INC.Inventors: Mark J.

Patent number: 8345936Abstract: A multispectral iris recognition system includes a multispectral camera adapted to acquire spatially registered iris images simultaneously in at least three wavelengths and a database adapted to store the acquired iris images. A texture analysis section identifies an area within each acquired iris image having a maximum texture at each of the wavelengths. The identified areas are combined to generate an enhanced iris image. Additionally, a visible light iris image is acquired and stored along with a set of transformation mappings in a database. The acquired visible light iris image is modeled in a texture model, which clusters textures from the acquired visible light iris image. A mapping is selected from the database for each of the clusters. The selected mappings are applied to the acquired visible light iris image to generate a Near-Infrared equivalent.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2009Date of Patent: January 1, 2013Assignee: Noblis, Inc.Inventors: Mark J.
