When Face Recognition Goes Wrong (häftad, eng)

When Face Recognition Goes Wrong explores the myriad ways

that humans and machines make mistakes in facial recognition.

Adopting a critical stance throughout, the book explores why

and how humans and machines make mistakes, covering topics

including racial and gender biases, neuropsychological disorders,

and widespread algorithm problems.

The book features personal

anecdotes alongside real-world examples to showcase the often

life-changing consequences of facial recognition going wrong.

These range from problems with everyday social interactions

through to eyewitness identification leading to miscarriages of

justice and border control passport verification.

Concluding with a look to the future of facial recognition, the

author asks the world’s leading experts what are the big questions

that still need to be answered, and can we train humans and

machines to be super recognisers? This book is a must-read for

anyone interested in facial recognition, or in psychology, criminal

justice and law.
