Abstract
A system provides intelligent gallery management for biometrics. A first gallery is obtained that includes biometric and/or other information on a population of people. An application is identified. A subset of the population of people is identified based on the application. A second gallery is derived from the first gallery by pulling the information for the subset of the population of people without pulling the information for the population of people not in the subset. Biometric identification (such as facial recognition) for the application may then be performed using the second gallery rather than the first gallery. In this way, the system is improved as less time is required for biometric identification, fewer device resources are used, and so on.
Claims22
1-7. (canceled)
An intelligent biometric gallery management system, comprising:
- at least one non-transitory storage medium that stores instructions;
- and
- at least one processor that executes the instructions to:
- maintain a biometric gallery that includes biometric information for a population;
- generate an application specific biometric gallery by pulling a portion of the biometric information corresponding to a subset of the population from the biometric gallery, the subset of the population associated with an application for which the biometric gallery can be used to identify people;
- use the application specific biometric gallery for biometric identification;
- and
- maintain a maximum size of the application specific biometric gallery by removing first data from the application specific biometric gallery upon adding second data to the application specific biometric gallery.
15-20. (canceled)
An intelligent biometric gallery management system, comprising:
- at least one non-transitory storage medium that stores instructions;
- and
- at least one processor that executes the instructions to:
- use an application specific biometric gallery for biometric identification, the application specific biometric gallery generated from a biometric gallery that includes biometric information for a population by pulling a portion of the biometric information corresponding to a subset of the population from the biometric gallery, the subset of the population associated with an application for which the biometric gallery can be used to identify people;
- updating the application specific biometric gallery in:
- a first manner when the application specific biometric gallery is below a maximum size;
- and
- a second manner when the application specific biometric gallery is below a maximum size.

- and
- at least one processor that executes the instructions to:

- use the application specific biometric gallery for biometric identification;
- add first data to the application specific biometric gallery;
- and
- remove second data from the application specific biometric gallery upon determining that adding the second data to the application specific biometric gallery causes the application specific biometric gallery to exceed a maximum size.
