Face Recognition

Biometric identification and verification, built for deployment in access control and screening environments rather than laboratory benchmarks.

The system covered the full pipeline: detection, alignment, feature extraction and matching against an enrolled gallery, with the operating point tunable between false-accept and false-reject depending on what the deployment could tolerate.

Operating characteristics

The engineering question in a deployed biometric system is never a single accuracy figure. It is where you place the threshold, what each kind of error costs in that particular installation, and how the system behaves under lighting, pose and population conditions that differ from the enrolment set.

That discipline — being precise about what a system demonstrates under which conditions, rather than quoting a headline number — is the same one we now apply to validating cognitive simulation.
