Automated Biometric Identification using Dorsal Hand Images and Convolutional Neural Networks

Description

The researchers are investigating how well AI can be applied to identify people based solely on the back of their hands. They achieve accuracies of over 99.9%, indicating that such tools can be used to identify perpetrators in child sexual abuse material. Similar projects have been conducted in Lancaster University.
