Time Travel: 2014

After a while, Huang Jing suddenly said tentatively: "Can I ask you a question?"

Uh, are there so many questions?

Sure enough, woman, your name is curiosity.

Lin Hui: "Ask, as long as it doesn't involve emotions or anything messy, you can ask anything..."

Huang Jing said angrily: "Bah~ I'm asking you what you are doing in your love life, please stop being so sentimental, okay?

You are three years younger than my sister, and I have no interest in children like you. "

Lin Hui retorted: "I'm not a child."

Huang Jing: "Yes, you are not a child, but you are indeed just 18 years old."

Lin Hui: "Then I'm an adult, okay? Wait, (⊙﹏⊙) how do you know my age??"

Huang Jing: "What's so surprising about this? I'm considered an insider after all.

Didn’t you fill in the registrant information in the developer account?

It has age on it. "

Lin Hui: "Why do you believe that age is true?

Aren't you afraid that the age written on it is written randomly? "

Huang Jing: "The registrant information corresponds to the identity information registered by the individual developer, how could it be wrong?

Unless the identity information provided by the registrant itself is false. "

Lin Hui: “Is it possible to just use the information on the ID card registered during registration as real-name verification information?

You APPLE are too lax!

Is ID card information equal to identity information?

What if someone uses someone else’s ID card information to register a personal developer account? "

Huang Jing: "Huh? Who wouldn't think of impersonating a programmer's information during a meeting??"

(⊙﹏⊙)! ! !

Lin Hui felt that he had received real damage that was 100 times his health for a moment.

The whole person suddenly felt bad.

And the most important thing is that what Huang Jing said makes sense, and Lin Hui can't refute it.

Huang Jing seemed to realize that it was not a good idea to say this.

He said hurriedly: "Ahem... The situation you mentioned is indeed a problem, so what do you think is rigorous?"

Lin Hui: "At least when entering the identity information on the ID card, you need assistance with facial verification!"

Huang Jing: “Face verification, do you mean face recognition technology?

How is it possible? This technology is not mature at all now, okay?

I feel that it is more reliable to rely on facial recognition technology than to directly rely on ID card information for registration?

After all, identity information and payment accounts assist each other in verifying each other, so they are not completely unreliable. "

etc.

It’s 2014 and facial recognition technology is not yet mature?

what's going on?

Lin Hui asked hurriedly: "Can you tell me what level of development the face recognition technology has reached now?"

Although it seems that Lin Hui's thinking is a bit jumpy.

But Huang Jing still patiently explained: "..."

Through communication with Huang Jing.

Only then did Lin Hui realize that the face recognition technology in this time and space was the same as that in the time and space he had been in before.

They all appeared in the 1970s.

But it is different from another time and space.

Face recognition technology has just come out in this time and space.

A certain camp has erupted in large-scale protests over the infringement of personal privacy by facial recognition technology.

The protest was huge.

The excited NC crowd was enveloped in turbulent emotions.

They even attacked some related laboratories.

This move directly led to the shelving of research on facial recognition technology.

This was put on hold for more than thirty years.

Until the past few years, mobile payment has developed rapidly.

People are beginning to look for other secure payment methods besides fingerprint payment.

Only then did people turn their attention to face recognition technology again.

However, it is not that easy to resume research on this technology.

Researchers related to facial recognition technology, a biometric technology, have experienced gaps to varying degrees in various countries.

At a time when many countries are studying facial recognition technology again.

They had to start from scratch and walk the same old path again.

How can it be so easy to go back to the old path?

Through information revealed from Huang Jing.

Lin Hui judged that this spatio-temporal face recognition technology had just passed the semi-mechanical recognition stage.

It has just entered the stage of human-computer interactive recognition.

Although it has reached the stage of human-computer interactive recognition,

Researchers can already use algorithms to achieve advanced representations of faces.

Some simple representation methods can also be used to represent the high-level features of face images.

However, the face recognition method at this stage requires the introduction of prior knowledge of the operator.

A high level of researcher involvement is still required.

In other words, this recognition process is not completely free from manual intervention.

This is still far from the true automatic face recognition stage.

It is far from automatic face recognition, which undoubtedly means that this technology is still far away from true commercialization.

This is much slower than the normal timeline.

That's understandable.

Facial recognition technology itself is difficult.

There is not much difference between different individuals. The structure of all human faces is similar, and even the structure and appearance of facial organs are very similar.

Such characteristics are detrimental to using faces to distinguish human individuals.

The shape of the human face is very unstable.

People can produce many expressions through facial changes.

At different viewing angles, the visual image of a human face also varies greatly.

In addition, face recognition is also affected by many factors such as lighting conditions, many coverings on the face (such as masks, sunglasses, hair, beards, etc.), age, shooting posture angle, etc...

In addition to the difficulty of face recognition technology itself.

There are also the historical reasons mentioned just now.

In short, people in this time and space have been weak in face recognition technology for a long time. How can it be so easy to catch up?

Although in this time and space, people’s voices about facial recognition invading privacy are much smaller than in the past.

And various institutions have shown sufficient attention to facial recognition technology.

But looking at it from Lin Hui’s perspective.

Facial recognition technology in this world is still lagging behind.

At least 3 years behind (at the same time and space in Lin Hui's previous life).

Three years is enough time to change a lot of things.

What's more, compared to the normal time of 2014.

Lin Hui already had a 7-year time advantage.

In this way, one waxes and wanes.

Lin Hui suddenly had the advantage of having an information gap of ten years.

This is a definite advantage for me!

At this time, even the most cutting-edge institutions may have just begun to involve the third generation of face recognition:

——Automatic face recognition.

At a time when these cutting-edge institutions are still conducting theoretical verification of the third generation of face recognition.

Not only did Lin Hui already know all the characteristics of the third generation face recognition technology.

And it’s also clear how the technology works.

Several technical routes related to face recognition technology in previous lives:

Recognition algorithms based on facial feature points, recognition algorithms based on the entire face image, template-based recognition algorithms, recognition algorithms using neural networks, and recognition algorithms using support vector machines.

Lin Hui knows better than anyone else which one is easier to achieve.

The most interesting thing is that some of these algorithms were simply open source algorithms in their previous lives.

For some classic algorithms, Lin Hui also backed up some of them.

All in all, compared to people in this time and space, Lin Hui not only has a time advantage in face recognition technology.

And there are technical advantages.

this……

Just now I suddenly discovered a business opportunity worth tens of millions of dollars, which seems to be nothing.

You know, facial recognition technology corresponds to a market worth nearly one trillion yuan.

(ps:...not exaggerating)

It can only be said that this era is difficult for Lin Hui.

It is completely an era of great potential.

I want tickets (ω｀)
