Intimidation. And i wonder is that where were headed is world. My responsibility as a journalist is to get beyond the smoke and mirrors its not just about being clear and balanced or being neutral its about being truthful. Funny was cordoned off and i work in the. Faces of the fingerprints of today thanks to facial Recognition Technology some use it to unlock their phones convenient for others its used to survey a bit every step what does face recognition capable off at how can you escape it topic today on shift. 64. 00 countries around the world use facial Recognition Technology the hardware and software is often produced in china low Income Countries can even get reduced interest on their chinese loans thats what the comedy endowment for International Peace found out not much is known about the Global Industry for facial Recognition Technology they act discreetly even if some well known Tech Companies them and the russian capital moscow facial Recognition Technology has been recently implemented to the 1st stress test the corona pandemic. More than 100000 facial recognition tamras are being used to fight the spread of corona virus in moscow. The cameras were allegedly monitoring Chinese People in a targeted manner and theyve later been used to track whether people in quarantine were really staying at home. Activists see facial recognition in geo tracking as a threat to human rights. But you did notice some measures can be justified but its up to us to make sure that after the epidemic ends these measures are lifted. Within weeks Software Companies around the world adapted their systems to the new reality under coronavirus measures they saw recognition now also works with face masks. When people dont wear a mask the recognition rate is about 99. 5 percent when wearing a mask the recognition rate can still reach about 95 percent. If the cameras connected to a Temperature Sensor it can even measure a persons body temperature and inform the authorities if someone has a fever. In order to recognize humans Wearing Masks the systems need to practice using photos companies have repeatedly used photos from social media for this so called scrapers software automatically downloads all photos. That have not been set to private the New York Times revealed that the us Company Clearview collected brace yourselves 3000000000 photos off Twitter Facebook and co the resulting database is used by us Police Forces to convict criminals but how does facial Recognition Technology actually work here are the basics in 50 seconds. Most basic Recognition Systems use a to d. Source like of bodo or video and algorithm analyzes the relative position distance and location of basal features such as the eyes nose and mouth. Alternatively the algorithm analyzes multiple images of a specific person and generates a data version of the face for comparison. 3 d. Facial Recognition Technology uses sensors to capture information about the shape of a face like the exact depth of someones eye sockets. Texture analysis uses details of the skin such as unique lines patterns in spots to identify a face. How secure is facial Recognition Technology how far could it potentially reach we asked me attack from taiwan she is a Data Scientist and expert for machine learning. How to get this database for the hackers so. Like once you add the face a match to your dataset then this kind of like everyone want to hack in a minute because once they have your face they can kind of pretend they are you. Maybe you were 1834 i dont know 87 different points on your face so that say if you cover your nose and your mouth so you kind of covered to certain numbers of the data point of it so then the rest in number that you could use be the data point to from your eyebrows from your eyes that distance between your 2 eyes and your cheek bone so still you could get certain of the features of it but take a bit a longer time to compare of it even some people will wear a t. Shirt with a human face in the front so that the camera is kind of confused whether this teacher is year or does faces to you. There are some plus in the model in between so i think we definitely need to think about when we talk about a promising we also have to think about that panicky why they figure the things ron theres experiments or as debate. Research center they use 500. 00 peoples face of Americas Congress and then they come paired it with the criminal to the sat and then theyre found it is kind of like 35. 00 case of it are match with a common of data but they are not in germany we usually discuss Data Security and privacy when we talk about facial recognition thats justified but do we also see the Positive Side in india this technology has reunited thousands of missing children with their families and in china too many people rather through the process but. One man jean young goes to eat Lunch High School woman hang joe all she needs to show is her face and she receives her preordered with thanking vegetables she no longer needs to queue to pay. Than it used to be wed always queue for ages because everyone paid by card students can also borrow books from the library and this way. Data we collect tells us exactly who has twitch books and one this helps the library to cater to the students interest when buying new books. On the if we cut it does use of the plain jane young has gotten used to the cameras. On the one hand she do sort of get the feeling youre being watched on the other hand it does help us learn and thats the main reason were here. For all the pros outweigh the cons. So. Screens are used to display when the boarding School Students are in their rooms on time in the evenings they also show whos late to class in the mornings modern tech. Knology is supposed to help the students excel says the school the more data the better. And San Francisco things are very different there facial recognition was officially prohibited for use by the citys authorities in 29001 paskin was the initiator of the built in psychologically unhealthy when people know they were being watching every aspect of the public row on the streets in parks thats not the kind of city i want to live one reason for the ban on this Technology Fear of racial profiling indeed facial Recognition Systems make more mistakes with asian and black persons as well as with women children and elderly people study by the mit named gender shades shows that the algorithms work especially bad on black women in response to this study i. B. M. Brought out a new data set called diversity in faces it consists of Creative Commons photos of 1000000 people of different skin colors and can be used to train data by the Global Research community in mid june Companies Like i. B. M. Amazon and microsoft officially declared that they would not supply face Recognition Technology to the police anymore but nowadays Software Developers are not only working on Artificial Intelligence to recognize our faces but also the mood where. Human emotions are complex as is expressing and using the face scientists at the german found institute for integrated circuits train algorithms to recognize emotional patterns in human faces but the universal expressions even exist for emotions like anger grief and fear. Some for the print aspects of the things express emotion and certain muscle movements create a look of joy anger grief anger and so on from thats universally understood in most cultures and the things we can discern from the facial expressions of another human is are things. That we can also teach software with a very high success rate. To train the software the research is also use photos of faces with clearly defined expressions that system for analyzing emotions can detect under joy rage and grief in real time but what can it be used for. And the. Typical thing that emotion and ai is used for is interactions between humans and machines and one of our projects is teaching a robot to work with autistic children to help them read nonverbal signals and facial expressions. And that was angry well done you did that well. The technology is also used in the Automotive Industry here its primarily used to monitor the drivers emotional state from spotting signs of distraction or stress before. So is a motion to ai homeless. People these kinds of technologies have the potential to be used to monitor and manipulate people of course thats precisely why its important to actively engage with this technology and its potential consequences we can only do that if we are in control and really understand these technologies and what they can and cannot do. But. Its becoming increasingly harder to escape facial recognition but one can still try to trick the algorithms some Creative Ideas on how to do this have been developed in art and design. This coat by a german label ip privacy is not just passion statement its also an invisibility cloak the pattern supposed to confuse spatial recognition cameras. When the cameras comes at it recognizes this is a face and this is a face its also recognizes your insides but thats not too much of a problem its like youre telling the algorithm that your human. But you have 10 different faces. It doesnt make sense to the algorithm a tool and so it messes with the learning processes and the algorithms. Georgina rowlands and and a heart from the british our collective dazzle club also want to be undetectable to cameras they paint their faces in different patterns called c. V. Dazzle created by artist and researcher adam harvey these shapes are supposed to trick facial recognition algorithms they use smartphones to see if it works i can see where im hidden its not detecting me say theyre the shapes of life. Every month the collective organizes a silent march through london the british capital has one of the highest concentrations of surveillance cameras worldwide. The Artists Paint their faces to protest the lack of transparency behind the collection of biometric data they will use d. P. I. Running you make yourself very visible to be invisible so we talk about hiding in plain sight as leo has loaded his face online allowing anyone to download it his you mean masks can be used to hide your own identity and confuse the Surveillance System whats your opinion on facial recognition would you put your face on the line in return for more comfort join the discussion on you tube or facebook so you assume by.
