This ranking is proof that IDEMIA commits to the highest level of technology for its AI solutions in line with its mission to make the world safer through developing state-of-the-art identity technologies. IDEMIA’s algorithm stands out for its capacity to combine both performance and fairness without compromising on either.

This confirms its reliability regarding facial recognition solutions, at both government and consumer level. IDEMIA’s false match rate between different demographic groups hardly differs.

Reducing risk of discrimination

The algorithm identifies all subjects equally well, regardless of demographic. Its advances in reducing the risk of discrimination are in line with IDEMIA’s ambition to achieve responsible and ethical use in developing AI technologies.

IDEMIA has also maintained its position in the top 3 of the FRVT 1:N Identification ranking

These results are in line with IDEMIA’s previous rankings, which confirm its position in biometric technologies. Indeed, IDEMIA has also maintained its position in the top 3 of the FRVT 1:N Identification ranking, with 99.88% rank 1 accuracy against a 12 million dataset. Additionally, IDEMIA’s iris recognition technology renewed its 1st place for Single-eye Accuracy with its latest submission to IREX 10 benchmark.

Facial recognition technologies

On fingerprint recognition technology, IDEMIA’s AFIS-class algorithm ranked first on most datasets in the PFT III benchmark, which measures the performance of one-to-one fingerprint matching with proprietary templates. IDEMIA technology leads the competition on all three main biometric modalities.

NIST’s FRVT results are further evidence of the highest standard we have set with our suite of facial recognition technologies, positioning fairness as a key criterion, in addition to accuracy. By being more than twice the fairness of the top 20 most accurate, we continue to lead the industry in terms of social responsibilities. IDEMIA is paving the way in the ‘battle for fairness’ and I would like to congratulate our teams of experts on their excellent work meeting this priority,” said Jean-Christophe Fondeur, Chief Technical Officer at IDEMIA.
