• Authors: K. Lai, S. Samoil, and S.N.Yanushkevich
• Abstract summary: This study demonstrates how facial biometrics, acquired using multi-spectral sensors, assist the data accumulation in the process of authorizing users of automated and semi-automated access systems. We utilize depth data taken using an inexpensive RGB-D sensor to find the head pose of a subject. Usage of the frontal-view frames improves the efficiency of face recognition while the corresponding IR video frames allow for more efficient temperature estimation for facial regions of interest.

• Abstract: This study demonstrates how facial biometrics, acquired using multi-spectral sensors, such as RGB, depth, and infrared, assist the data accumulation in the process of authorizing users of automated and semi-automated access systems. This data serves the purposes of person authentication, as well as facial temperature estimation. We utilize depth data taken using an inexpensive RGB-D sensor to find the head pose of a subject. This allows the selection of video frames containing a frontal-view head pose for face recognition and face temperature reading. Usage of the frontal-view frames improves the efficiency of face recognition while the corresponding synchronized IR video frames allow for more efficient temperature estimation for facial regions of interest. In addition, this study reports emerging applications of biometrics in biomedical and health care solutions. Including surveys of recent pilot projects, involving new sensors of biometric data and new applications of human physiological and behavioral biometrics. It also shows the new and promising horizons of using biometrics in natural and contactless control interfaces for surgical control, rehabilitation and accessibility.

  The recent rapid advancements in both sensing and machine learning technologies have given rise to the universal collection and utilization of people's biometrics. The use of biometrics has raised serious privacy concerns due to their intrinsic sensitive nature and the accompanying high risk of leaking sensitive information. We propose a novel modality-agnostic data transformation framework that is capable of anonymizing biometric data by suppressing its sensitive attributes and retaining features relevant to downstream machine learning-based analyses.
