Defining the core accuracy metrics of biometric systems
During the evaluation of Biometrics-based systems, one of the first steps involves defining the core accuracy metrics. This is an important step that helps us to assess if the behavior of our system corresponds with our expectations. Verification scores measure the differences between two given biometrics samples and it’s normally given in 2 forms: a) […]

System vs Algorithm Evaluations in Face Presentation Attack Detection
In the field of face presentation attack detection (face-PAD) or liveness detection, evaluating the effectiveness of detection systems and algorithms is crucial to ensure robust and reliable anti-spoofing measures. Two primary evaluation approaches used in PAD research are system evaluation and algorithm evaluation. In this blog post, we will explore the key differences between them, […]

Alice Biometrics ranks #1 in remote identity verification systems, according to NIST
The prestigious National Institute of Standards and Technologies (NIST), part of the US Department of Defense, has published the results of the 1-to-1 test for facial recognition providers. Alice ranked first among remote video-identification companies worldwide. This reaffirms Alice’s position as the best solution for remote identity verification using facial recognition. The results of this […]

Understanding Face Presentation Attack Detection and Face Liveness Detection
In the realm of identity verification, detecting and preventing fraud is crucial for maintaining trust and security. Two key techniques employed for this purpose are face presentation attack detection (PAD) and face liveness detection. While both techniques contribute to the overall anti-fraud measures in face recognition, they can differ (or converge, spoiler alert!) in their […]
