I'm curious about how to interpret their 'Face Recognition Evaluation' data though. I'd like to use this for authentication purposes but if I'm interpreting it

  Correct, we do a decent job on mugshots/driver's licenses, but are not at commercial level performance yet. Keep an eye out for NIST FRVT 2012 [1] and our upcoming conference paper [2] if you'd like to see more complete comparisons.

    Nice work! By the way, now that you're here ;) do you perhaps also know if there's a way to address fjcaetano's concerns if you have access to a full video feed?

      "Liveness detection" is an active area of research within the community. I know you can enable this check on Android and it works moderately well.

        Awesome. Thanks for the reference!

  Authentication is problematic, because using a photo can trigger the algorithm to successfully authenticate the user. I've done this a couple of times with my brother's phone. All I had to do as load his profile picture on my phone and show it to his camera.
