Interesting thesis work, reverse engineering a face recognition algorithm, and finding makeup patterns that fool it. Of course, there are a variety of types of face recognition: this work seems to be based on a simple feature position model.


This was known for a long time. If you want to fool face recognition algorithm, modify some of 'static' features. Such as ears, eyebrows etc..

It was even mentioned in books like Crichton: State of fear or Wilson: How To Survive a Robot Uprising
