Shulou(Shulou.com)06/02 Report--

With the rapid development of photoelectric technology, microcomputer technology, image processing technology and pattern recognition technology, Face Recognition was born. In recent years, Face Recognition technology has been widely used in government, army, banking, entertainment, e-commerce, security protection and other fields. Applications such as face-brushing card punching, face-brushing ticket checking, face-brushing sign-in, face-brushing shopping, etc. can be seen everywhere in the world. It can be said that "face-brushing" technology has changed people's way of life, work and entertainment imperceptibly.

According to the report released by the Research Institute of Prospective Industry, with the in-depth development of smart cities in China and the further popularization of HD surveillance, the obstacle of Face Recognition in data collection is greatly reduced. It is estimated that the market scale of Face Recognition will maintain an average annual growth rate of 25% in the next five years, and the market scale will reach about RMB 6.7 billion yuan in 2022. Industry experts also point out that the average Chinese person is exposed to various cameras more than 500 times a day.

To be fair, cheers and doubts have always accompanied the development of Face Recognition: supporters believe that efficiency and security coexist when "brushing faces"; opponents say accuracy is worrying and privacy is lost. Today, we look at the major events related to Face Recognition technology that took place in 2019.

Ministry of Industry and Information Technology: Strengthen the management of telephone user real-name registration and support the construction of network identity authentication system

In order to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of citizens in cyberspace, the General Office of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the Notice on Further Improving the Management of Real-name Registration of Telephone Users (hereinafter referred to as the Notice). According to the Notice, in order to ensure the consistency of telephone network access links and innovative use of AI and other technical means, telecommunications enterprises are required to fully implement portrait comparison technical measures in physical channels from December 1,2019. Only after portrait comparison is consistent can they go through network access procedures. (News of September 26)

In addition, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology also publicly solicited opinions on the Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Development of Cybersecurity Industry (hereinafter referred to as "Opinions"). The Opinion points out that it supports the construction of a network identity authentication system based on commercial password, fingerprint recognition, Face Recognition and other technologies.

The First Case of Face Recognition in China

On October 28, Guo Bing, a distinguished associate professor at Zhejiang University of Science and Technology, filed a public prosecution with Hangzhou Fuyang District People's Court because the zoo will carry out Face Recognition certification affecting the use of its annual card. The case, known as "China's First Case of Face Recognition," has attracted widespread attention. Some scholars believe that the referee in the first line of this case will also historically "touch" Face Recognition technology, and bring the specific technical application scenario to the legal framework to examine, study, discuss and judge the real impact of its application on the legal rights and interests of the actor.

Face Recognition Technology National Standard Working Group Launched in an All-round Way

On November 20, the General Meeting of the Biometrics Identification Sub-Technical Committee of the National Beacon Committee was held in Beijing. At the meeting, the White Paper on Biometrics Identification (2019 Edition) was issued, the National Standard Working Group on Face Recognition Technology was established, and the formulation of national standards for Face Recognition was fully launched.

It is understood that the officially established Face Recognition National Standard Working Group, member units include Tencent, China Ping An, Ant Financial Services, Dahua, Science and Technology University Xunfei, Xiaomi and many other leading enterprises in the industry, with rich experience and deep understanding of the whole chain from technical research, product development, application and use, operation and maintenance guarantee, etc.

Guangzhou Police Release "True You" Trusted Identity Authentication Application

On November 27, Guangzhou Public Security held a press conference to release an anti-fraud artifact_identity authentication Weixin Mini Programs (Mini)"True You." The main function of this Mini programs is to identify the true identity of online friends by brushing their faces, so as to avoid being cheated.

In detail, when users chat with others using WeChat, if they have doubts about the requirements put forward by the other party, they can enter the "CTID" Weixin Mini Programs (Mini), click the "True You" authentication button, and initiate a "face brushing authentication" request to the other party through the chat window.

In addition, the adoption of facial recognition technology for the first time in 2019 is also worthy of attention.

Conclusion: Dr. Yan Shuicheng, CTO of Yitu Technology, pointed out that "there is no perfect technology in the world. If the accuracy of a new technology can meet the requirements under certain scenarios and the risks brought by errors can be borne, then it is valuable." "Therefore, it is necessary to find the right balance between privacy, security and convenience, allowing Face Recognition technology to move forward moderately.
