Bachelor/masterthesis - computer Vision for Biometrics
vor 1 Woche
Biometrics is a rapidly growing technology that aims to identify or verify people's identities based on their physical or behavioural properties. Different aspects of biometric technology are active research fields. Enhancing the accuracy of biometric comparisons, securing the biometric templates, managing fast searches in biometric databases, and detecting different attacks on biometric systems, are all essential advancements to enable a wider and more secure deployment of the technology. Most biometric systems are based on image analyses. Therefore, exciting challenges in the computer vision domain are inherited by biometric systems. Such challenges are related to miniature deep learning networks, explainable decisions, and domain adaption.
Our team is offering several open thesis positions to tackle these challenges. Interested students from Computer Science, Data Science, Physics, Statistics, and Mathematics, are encouraged to apply. The exact details of the thesis topic can be built on the available topics and the competencies and interests of the student.
**What you will do**
- **Robust Face Recognition**: Explore novel methods to enhance face recognition performance in challenging conditions, such as varying lighting, pose, and occlusion. Develop strategies to train robust biometric systems in the presence of noisy or incomplete data, improving real-world performance.
- **Knowledge Distillation**: Investigate techniques to compress complex biometric models while preserving accuracy, enabling efficient deployment on resource-constrained devices.
- **Uncertainty Quantification**: Focus on methods to estimate and represent the uncertainty associated with biometric predictions, leading to more reliable systems.
- **Explainability**: Work on developing explainable AI techniques for biometric systems, enhancing transparency and trust in these critical technologies.
- **Fairness**: Address the critical issue of fairness in biometric systems by developing methods to mitigate bias and ensure equitable performance across different demographic groups.
**What you bring to the table**
**Required skills**:Interest in machine learning and computer vision, good programming skills.
**Study programs**: Computer Science, Data Science, Physics, Statistics, and Mathematics
