Scientists continue to improve artificial intelligence and to teach him new tricks. For example, a team of researchers from the United States and India have developed a neural network capable of permanently to deprive any of the anonymity of the participants different kinds of uprisings, demonstrations and protests, hiding their faces behind scarves, balaclavas and other clothing items. In the future to abscond person who violates the law, hoping to remain anonymous, will be much more difficult.
This system works based on recognition of 14 separate points on the face and measuring the distance between them. Based on the measurements obtained are unique for each individual design, allowing you to recognize it even when it is partially hiding your face behind glasses, a beard, a scarf or mask. For learning artificial intelligence researchers used more than 2000 images, which were depicted as individual people and groups of people. At this moment, the system is able to successfully recognize people in 56% of cases, but the results gradually improve with training.
Yes, the technology is still far from ideal. However, a start, and in the coming years hiding on the other side of dark glasses or masks will be much harder than before. Developed by scientists from the University of Cambridge and the National Institute of technology Warangal artificial intelligence will be presented to the public in the framework of the conference International Conference on Computer Vision Workshops 2017, which will open its doors in late October of this year. The results of their work, the researchers were published online and read them, anyone can.
Anonymity will not save: AI has learned to know the people, hiding the face
