System settings#

Parameter Description Type Default value
verboseLogging Level of log verbosity. 1 - Errors, 2 - Warnings, 3 - Info, 4 - Debug. "Value::Int1" 2
betaMode Enable experimental features (0 - Off, 1 - On). "Value::Int1" 0
defaultDetectorType Detector type: FaceDetV1, FaceDetV2, FaceDetV3. "Value::String" FaceDetV3

Note: The FaceDetV1 has been deprecated since v.5.23.0. Use FaceDetV3 instead.

Verbosity level sets the upper limit of what type of messages may be printed out by the Luna SDK. For example, if user set verboseLogging to 3, it means that Errors, Warnings and Info messages will be printed out to the console. Verbose level of 0 indicates that there are no logging messages printed out at all.

Example:

<section name="system">
    <param name="verboseLogging" type="Value::Int1" x="2" />
    <param name="betaMode" type="Value::Int1" x="0" />
    <param name="detectorType" type="Value::String" text="FaceDetV3" />

Descriptor factory settings#

Descriptor factory is a facility that creates descriptor extractors and matchers. Both of them utilize algorithms that require a number of coefficients ("weights") to operate properly.

Parameter Description Type Default value
model CNN face descriptor version. "Value::Int1" 62
Possible values: 58, 59, 60, 62
useMobileNet MobileNet is faster but less accurate. Possible values: 0 - don't use mobile net version, 1 - use mobile net version. "Value::Int1" 0
distance Distance between descriptors on matching. L1 faster, L2 make better precision. Possible values: L1, L2. "Value::String" "L2"
descriptorCount WarningLevel Threshold, that limits the ratio of created descriptors to the amount, defined by your license. When the threshold is exceeded, FSDK prints the warning. "Value::Float1" 0.9
calcSimilarity Enable similarity calculation during matching process. Possible values: 1 - enable, 0 - disable. "Value::Int1" 1
calcDistanceSqrt Enable calculation of the square root of distance. Possible values: 1 - enable, 0 - disable "Value::Int1" 1

Models with versions 58, 59, 60, 62 support just L2 distance.

Example:

<section name="DescriptorFactory::Settings">
        <param name="model" type="Value::Int1" x="62" />
        <param name="useMobileNet" type="Value::Int1" x="0" />
        <param name="distance" type="Value::String" text="L2" />
        <param name="descriptorCountWarningLevel" type="Value::Float1" x="0.9" />
        <!--Calculate similarity by default to preserve backward compatible-->
        <param name="calcSimilarity" type="Value::Int1" x="1" />

Currently, the available values to select the estimation mode are: Default, M1 and M2. The scenario Default means the mode is specified in config file. @see ISettingsProvider.

Implementation description:

NIRLiveness Estimation Mode Enum

enum class NIRLivenessMode {
   Default,  // Specified in config file.
   M1,       // M1.
   M2        // M2.
};

    <param name="openThreshold" type="Value::Float1" x="0.5"/>
</section>

Face Occlusion Estimator Settings#

The Face Occlusion estimator predicts occlusion of various face areas such as the forehead, eyes, nose, mouth, and lower face.

Estimator accuracy depends on thresholds listed below.

Parameter Description Type Default Threshold range
normalHairCoeff Threshold for hair*. "Value::Float1" 0.15 0.0 - 1.0
overallOcclusionThreshold Overall threshold. "Value::Float1" 0.07 0.0 - 1.0
foreheadThreshold Threshold for forehead. "Value::Float1" 0.2 0.0 - 1.0
eyeThreshold Threshold for eye. "Value::Float1" 0.15 0.0 - 1.0
noseThreshold Threshold for nose. "Value::Float1" 0.2 0.0 - 1.0
mouthThreshold Threshold for mouth. "Value::Float1" 0.15 0.0 - 1.0
lowerFaceThreshold Threshold for lower face. "Value::Float1" 0.2 0.0 - 1.0

Note: The normalHairCoeff parameter defines whether the presence of hair is considered when analyzing face occlusion. If hair occlusion percentage is lower than normalHairCoeff the presence of hair is not taken into account. Otherwise the surplus of hair occlusion is added to the overall face occlusion percentage. For instance, if overall face occlusion score without hair is 0.05, overall face occlusion score with hair is 0.2, and normalHairCoeff is 0.15, then the resulting overall face occlusion score will be 0.05 + (0.2 - 0.15) = 0.1.

<section name="FaceOcclusionEstimator::Settings">
    <param name="normalHairCoeff" type="Value::Float1" x="0.15"/>

LivenessFlyingFaces Estimator settings#

This estimator tells whether the person's face is real or fake (photo, printed image).

LivenessOneShotRGBEstimator settings#

This estimator tells whether the person's face is real or fake (photo, printed image). Thresholds are listed below.

Liveness protects from presentation attacks - when user tries to cheat biometric system by demonstrating fake face to the face capturing camera, but not from image substitution attacks - when fake image is sent directly to the system, bypassing the camera.

LivenessOneShotRGBEstimator supports images, which are captured on Mobile devices or Webcam (PC or laptop). Correct working of the estimator with other source images is not guaranteed.

Supported shooting mode: cooperative, which means that user must interact with the camera and look at it.

User scenarios examples: authentication in mobile application, confirmation of transactions with biometric facial verification.

Image resolution minimum requirements:

  • Mobile devices - 720 × 960 px
  • Webcam (PC or laptop) - 1280 x 720 px

Credibility Estimator settings#

Credibility estimator is trained to predict reliability of a person. It does so by returning a score value between [0;1] which will be closer to 1 if a person is more likely to be reliable and closer to 0 otherwise. Along with the output score value estimator also returns an enum value, which will give a plain answer if a person is reliable or not for a user convenience. Credibility estimator sets this enum value by comparing an output score with a reliability threshold value listed in faceengine.conf file. User can modify this threshold in CredibilityEstimator::Settings section:

Parameter Description Type Default value
reliableThreshold threshold "Value::Float1" 0.5

Example:

<section name="CredibilityEstimator::Settings">
    <param name="reliableThreshold" type="Value::Float1" x="0.5"/>
</section>

Natural Light Estimator settings#

Natural Light estimator is trained to predict natural of light on the face image.

It does so by returning a score value between [0;1] which will be closer to 1 if a light is more likely to be natural and closer to 0 otherwise.

Along with the output score value estimator also returns an enum value, which will give a plain answer if a person is reliable or not for a user convenience.

NaturalLight estimator sets this enum value by comparing an output score with a reliability threshold value listed in faceengine.conf file. User can modify this threshold in NaturalLightEstimator::Settings section:

Parameter Description Type Default value
naturalLightThreshold threshold "Value::Float1" 0.5

Example:

BlackWhite Estimator settings#

Estimator checks if image is color, grayscale or infrared.

Estimator accuracy depends on thresholds listed below.

Parameter Description Type Default value
colorThreshold threshold in [0..1] range "Value::Float1" 0.5
irThreshold threshold in [0..1] range. "Value::Float1" 0.5

Estimator outputs ImageColorEstimation which consists of 2 scores and color image type as enum with possible values: Color, Grayscale, Infrared.

  • For color image score colorScore will be close to 1.0 and the second one infraredScore - to 0.0;
  • for infrared image score colorScore will be close to 0.0 and the second oneinfraredScore - to 1.0;
  • for grayscale images both of scores will be near 0.0.

So colorThreshold is responsible for separating Color and Grayscale images; irThreshold is responsible for separating Infrared and Grayscale images.

<section name="BlackWhiteEstimator::Settings">
        <param name="colorThreshold" type="Value::Float1" x="0.5"/>
        <param name="irThreshold" type="Value::Float1" x="0.5"/>
</section>

Fish Eye Estimator settings#

Fish Eye estimator is trained to predict fish eye effect on the face image.

Along with the output score value estimator also returns an enum value, which will give a plain answer if a person is reliable or not for a user convenience.

Fish Eye estimator sets this enum value by comparing an output score with a reliability threshold value listed in faceengine.conf file. User can modify this threshold in FishEyeEstimator::Settings section:

Parameter Description Type Default value
fishEyeThreshold threshold "Value::Float1" 0.5
