Deep Learning and image processing based ATM security and identifying the face

Abstract

A facial recognition system is a computer application for automatically identifying or verifying a person from a digital image or a video frame from a video source. Proposed paper uses face recognition technique for verification in ATM system. For face recognition, there are two types of comparisons. The first is verification, this is where the system compares the given individual with who that individual says they are and gives a yes or no decision. The next one is identification this is where the system compares the given individual to all the other individuals in the database and gives a ranked list of matches. Face recognition technology analyzes the unique shape, pattern and positioning of the facial features. Face recognition is very complex technology and is largely software based using Convolutional Neural network (CNN). Automated Teller Machines are widely used nowadays by people. But It‟s hard to carry their ATM card everywhere, people may forget to have their ATM card or forget their PIN number. The ATM card may get damaged and users can have a situation where they can‟t get access to their money. In our proposal, use of biometrics for authentication instead of PIN and ATM card is encouraged. Here, The Face ID is preferred to high priority, as the combination of these biometrics proved to be the best among the identification and verification techniques. The implementation of ATM machines comes with the issue of being accessed by illegitimate users with valid authentication code. The users are verified by comparing the image taken in front of the ATM machine, to the images which are present in the database.
