• Abstract summary: The system helps employees to unlock the entrance door via face recognition without the need of tag-keys or cards. Visitors and delivery persons are provided with a speech-to-text service where they utter the name of the employee that they want to meet. The hardware of the system is constituted by two Raspberry Pi, a 7-inch LCD-touch display, a camera, and a sound card with a microphone and speaker.

• Abstract: This paper describes the implementation of a system to recognize employees and visitors wanting to gain access to a physical office through face images and speech-to-text recognition. The system helps employees to unlock the entrance door via face recognition without the need of tag-keys or cards. To prevent spoofing attacks and increase security, a randomly generated code is sent to the employee, who then has to type it into the screen. On the other hand, visitors and delivery persons are provided with a speech-to-text service where they utter the name of the employee that they want to meet, and the system then sends a notification to the right employee automatically. The hardware of the system is constituted by two Raspberry Pi, a 7-inch LCD-touch display, a camera, and a sound card with a microphone and speaker. To carry out face recognition and speech-to-text conversion, the cloud-based platforms Amazon Web Services and the Google Speech-to-Text API service are used respectively. The two-step face authentication mechanism for employees provides an increased level of security and protection against spoofing attacks without the need of carrying key-tags or access cards, while disturbances by visitors or couriers are minimized by notifying their arrival to the right employee, without disturbing other co-workers by means of ring-bells.

  We propose a hardware-level face de-identification method to solve this vulnerability. We also propose an anonymization framework that generates a new face using the privacy-preserving image, face heatmap, and a reference face image from a public dataset as input.

  In this paper, we propose a novel face privacy protection method based on diffusion models, dubbed Diff-Privacy. Specifically, we train our proposed multi-scale image inversion module (MSI) to obtain a set of SDM format conditional embeddings of the original image. Based on the conditional embeddings, we design corresponding embedding scheduling strategies and construct different energy functions during the denoising process to achieve anonymization and visual identity information hiding.

  Service providers must authenticate their users, although individuals may wish to maintain privacy. Preserving privacy while performing authentication is challenging, particularly where adversaries can use biometric data to train transformation tools. We introduce a secure, flexible privacy-preserving system to capture and store an on-device fingerprint of the users' raw signals.

We focus on building a robust model for detecting and recognizing person, generating image descriptions, and designing a prototype for the smart door. The system notifies users with an MMS containing the name of incoming persons or as "unknown", scene image, facial description, and contextual information. Our system identifies persons with an F-score 0.97 and recognizes items to generate image description with an average F-score 0.97.
