Currently, biometric recognition systems, especially facial recognition systems, are frequently used for person authentication. Increasing facial image and video sharing on social media makes these systems vulnerable to attacks. For this reason, there is an increasing need for sensitive face presentation attack (FPA) detection systems. In this paper, a lightweight multi-input hybrid deep convolutional neural network model was proposed for FPA detection. For this purpose, a simplified version of the widely used Xception network was developed. This model was extended via squeeze and excitation blocks to weight the data in the feature encoding channels. In addition, a simple residual network architecture with attention blocks was designed. The FPA detection performances of these models were subsequently examined in cases where the input data consisted of the raw images or cropped facial images. According to the results, a deep learning architecture with three parallel connections was proposed. The raw images, cropped facial images, and face-weighted multi-color multi-level local binary pattern features were given as inputs to the proposed model. Therefore, a multi-input hybrid FPA detection model was created using both hand-crafted features and deep features. The proposed architecture has approximately 82% fewer parameters than the original Xception network does. The experimental results on the benchmark CASIA and REPLAY-ATTACK datasets demonstrate the model's effectiveness, achieving a 1.53% equal error rate (EER) on the CASIA dataset and 0.00% EER with a 0.07% half total error rate (HTER) on the REPLAY-ATTACK dataset. These results outperform many state-of-the-art methods while requiring significantly fewer computational resources, making the approach suitable for deployment in resource-constrained environments.

Today, face recognition systems are widely used in many areas that require biometric-based verification, especially because they are contactless and require low user cooperation. Despite their ease of implementation, these systems are vulnerable to attacks. Especially the increasing use of social media, makes it easier to spoof face recognition systems. Therefore, it is very important to develop new methods for Face Presentation Attack (FPA) detection. In this study, FPA detection performances of the lightweight Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models -MobileNetV3-Small, ShuffleNet, SqueezeNet- and lightweight hybrid CNN models designed with combinations of these networks were investigated. In the experiments, the change in FPA detection performance was examined by giving the cropped face regions and the whole images as input to the networks. Using the whole image instead of the cropped face region significantly improved the FPA detection performance of the CNN models. These results showed that non-facial areas carry important information in FPA detection. Also, the FPA detection performance of the proposed lightweight hybrid CNN models were better than the single use of the networks for both inputs. 0.17% HTER performance was achieved with the hybrid CNN model built from the combination of ShuffleNet + SqueezeNet on the Replay-Attack dataset.

Biometric recognition systems are frequently used in daily life although they are vulnerable to attacks. Today, especially the increasing use of face authentication systems has made these systems the target of face presentation attacks (FPA). This has increased the need for sensitive systems detecting the FPAs. Recently surgical masks, frequently used due to the pandemic, directly affect the performance of face recognition systems. Researchers design face recognition systems only from the eye region. This motivated us to evaluate the FPA detection performance of the eye region. Based on this, in cases where the whole face is not visible, the FPA detection performance of other parts of the face has also been examined. Therefore, in this study, FPA detection performances of facial regions of wide face, cropped face, eyes, nose, and mouth was investigated. For this purpose, the facial regions were determined and normalized, and texture features were extracted using powerful texture descriptor local binary patterns (LBP) due to its easy computability and low processing complexity. Multi-block LBP features are used to obtain more detailed texture information. Generally uniform LBP patterns are used for feature extraction in the literature. In this study, the FPA detection performances of both uniform LBP patterns and all LBP patterns were investigated. The size of feature vector is reduced by principal component analysis, and real/fake classification is performed with support vector machines. Experimental results on NUAA, CASIA, REPLAY-ATTACK and OULU-NPU datasets show that the use of all patterns increased the performance of FPA detection.
