US Intelligence Wants Computers That Spot Fake Fingerprints
With Americans increasingly using fingerprint recognition to secure everything from smartphones to U.S. borders, impostors are inventing some pretty creative ways to fake out biometric readers.
Now, the spy community is fighting back. A 4-year project just launched to develop artificial intelligence that should automatically detect spoofed fingertips, facial images and irises.
Researchers at the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Agency aim not only to spot prosthetic thumbs, images printed with ink that conducts a charge, or other proven deceptions. The machine will learn to predict attacks never seen before.
