After all, even without masks, facial recognition can stumble -- studies have found that the majority of facial recognition algorithms had a higher rate of false positives for people of color by a ...
Researchers at cyber-defense contractor PeopleTec have found that facial-recognition algorithms' focus on specific areas of the face opens the door to subtler surveillance avoidance strategies ...
How does facial recognition work? 02:59 Artificial intelligence is catching on with America's pastime, something thousands of Twins fans learned at Target Field over the weekend.
Lawmakers should know that a facial recognition algorithm’s performance on a test cannot be easily or quickly generalized to make broad claims about whether a facial recognition algorithm is safe.
