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.
Claims20
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 that corresponds 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;
- determine identification of a person failed using the application specific biometric gallery;
- and
- use a different biometric gallery to identify the person.
