Mask-Robust Face Verification for Online Learning via YOLOv5 and Residual Networks
This addresses identity authentication in online education, but it appears incremental as it combines existing methods (YOLOv5 and residual networks) for a specific application.
The paper tackles face verification for online learning authentication by using YOLOv5 to detect faces from student cameras and a residual network to extract features, with identity determined by comparing Euclidean distances against a database.
In the contemporary landscape, the fusion of information technology and the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence have ushered school education into a transformative phase characterized by digitization and heightened intelligence. Concurrently, the global paradigm shift caused by the Covid-19 pandemic has catalyzed the evolution of e-learning, accentuating its significance. Amidst these developments, one pivotal facet of the online education paradigm that warrants attention is the authentication of identities within the digital learning sphere. Within this context, our study delves into a solution for online learning authentication, utilizing an enhanced convolutional neural network architecture, specifically the residual network model. By harnessing the power of deep learning, this technological approach aims to galvanize the ongoing progress of online education, while concurrently bolstering its security and stability. Such fortification is imperative in enabling online education to seamlessly align with the swift evolution of the educational landscape. This paper's focal proposition involves the deployment of the YOLOv5 network, meticulously trained on our proprietary dataset. This network is tasked with identifying individuals' faces culled from images captured by students' open online cameras. The resultant facial information is then channeled into the residual network to extract intricate features at a deeper level. Subsequently, a comparative analysis of Euclidean distances against students' face databases is performed, effectively ascertaining the identity of each student.
