TLDR
The interplay of technical and social issues involved in the widespread application of video surveillance for person identification, including face recognition technology, are analyzed.Abstract:
Video surveillance and face recognition systems have become the subject of increased interest and controversy after the September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States. In favor of face recognition technology, there is the lure of a powerful tool to aid national security. On the negative side, there are fears of an Orwellian invasion of privacy. Given the ongoing nature of the controversy, and the fact that face recognition systems represent leading edge and rapidly changing technology, face recognition technology is currently a major issue in the area of social impact of technology. We analyze the interplay of technical and social issues involved in the widespread application of video surveillance for person identification.read more

Engineering Privacy by Design: Are engineers ready to live up to the challenge?
TL;DR: In this article, the authors interviewed six senior engineers who work for globally leading IT corporations and research institutions to investigate their motivation and ability to comply with privacy regulations, and they pointed out a lack of perceived responsibility, control, autonomy, and frustrations with interactions with the legal world.

Balancing National Security and the Constitution: The Security Blanket Over Civil Liberties
Human face recognition
TL;DR: A new method for illumination invariant feature extraction based on the illumination-reflectance model is proposed which is computationally efficient and does not require any prior information about the face model or illumination.

Comparison and combination of ear and face images in appearance-based biometrics
TL;DR: It is found that recognition performance is not significantly different between the face and the ear, for example, 70.5 percent versus 71.6 percent in one experiment and multimodal recognition using both the ear and face results in statistically significant improvement over either individual biometric.

Face Recognition in Poor-Quality Video: Evidence From Security Surveillance:
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the ability of subjects to identify target people captured by a commercially available video security device and found that subjects who were personally familiar with the targets performed very well at identifying them, but subjects unfamiliar with the target performed very poorly.
