Mugshot Compliance for Face Image Quality

摘要

Mugshots taken by the Indiana Department of Corrections (IDOC) were analyzed for face recognition image quality. The mugshots provided by the IDOC was an assortment from different times and locations. 9,291 images were run through BSPALabs PreFace in the NIST Mugshot Best Practice Profile to observe compliance with ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2000. Previous study done by Hale et al. revealed the noncompliance of IDOC images for NIST approved mugshots. The current test replicates Hale et al.'s methodology with latest update to the PreFace image quality analysis program in order to observe current compliance.
