08 December 2022 | Project

PRDCSG once again kept Panasonic’s flag flying high in the global arena.

In the latest Performance Summary of the NIST* FRVT** 1:1 Verification released on 7th Nov 2022, we successfully clinched the No. 1 position in the Mugshot*** category.

The NIST FRVT challenge is the world’s most respected standard of facial recognition benchmarks, having attracted a total of 843 algorithms and 299 unique developers.

We have participated in this ongoing challenge by working hand in hand with Panasonic Connect since 2017. A related press release has been issued at https://news.panasonic.com/jp/press/jn221206-2 (in Japanese) and https://news.panasonic.com/global/press/en221206-3 (in English).

* NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) is an agency of the United States Department of Commerce.

** FRVT (Face Recognition Vendor Test) is an ongoing competition organized independently by NIST which invites vendors from all over the world to submit facial recognition algorithms.

*** Mugshot category focuses on facial images which are captured in constrained and cooperative mode, and labelled as being of type “mugshot”.
