Person recognition using facial features, e.g., mug-shot images, has long been used in identity documents. However, due to the widespread use of web-cams and mobile devices embedded with a camera, it is now possible to realise facial video recognition, rather than resorting to just still images. In fact, facial video recognition offers many advantages over still image recognition; these include the potential of boosting the system accuracy and deterring spoof attacks. This paper presents the first known benchmarking effort of person identity verification using facial video data. The evaluation involves 18 systems submitted by seven academic institutes., The work of NPoh is supported by the advanced researcher fellowship PA0022121477of the Swiss NSF; NPoh, CHC and JK by the EU-funded Mobio project grant IST-214324; NPC and HF by the EPSRC grants EP/D056942 and EP/D054818; VS andNP by the Slovenian national research program P2-0250(C) Metrology and Biomet-ric System, the COST Action 2101 and FP7-217762 HIDE; and, AAS by the Dutch BRICKS/BSIK project.
