The paper explains how the definition of biometric data copied from the GDPR may hamper the regulation of emotion recognition—as defined in the proposed AI Act. A replicated definition of biometric data is suitable for biometric systems, but not emotion recognition technologies. It is because, under the proposed AI Act, ...

The use of deep learning methods to extract vascular biometric patterns from the palm surface has been of interest among researchers in recent years. In many biometric recognition tasks, there is a limit in the number of training samples. This is because of limited vein biometric databases being available for research. ...

Look-alikes, a.k.a. doppelgängers, increase the probability of false matches in a facial recognition system, in contrast to random face image pairs selected for non-mated comparison trials. In order to analyse and improve the robustness of automated face recognition, datasets of doppelgänger face image pairs are needed. ...
