Natural 'Barcodes' Help Us Recognize Faces

Our faces contain ‘barcodes’ of information which help us recognise people and may have implications for improving face recognition software, according to a study co-authored by Dr Steven Dakin of the UCL Institute of Ophthalmology published today in the Journal of Vision.

Barcodes 'help face recognition'

Faces are made up of "barcodes" which help us recognise each other, according to scientists.

Dr Dakin believes the research may have implications for improving face recognition software, for example in busy public spaces where police may need to locate a suspect in a crowd on CCTV cameras. The ability of such software to recognise individuals has improved vastly, but is still poor at the first step - locating faces in complex scenes.
