The system will be able to distinguish between twins and identify faces even after plastic surgery. Authorities believe that this will help significantly reduce the level of crimes in which scammers use someone else's passports to obtain marriage certificates, writes Money Control. In the Chinese city of Chongqing will begin to use the technology of face recognition when registering a marriage. The fact is that in China when applying to the registry office it is necessary to provide not only a passport, but also a number of other documents. Their verification takes a lot of time, so the new identification system will greatly simplify the procedure. Representatives of the central registry office of Chongqing noted that the system will start operating in January and will act both for Chinese citizens and for foreigners. Face Detection technology will allow you to quickly compare the applicant's photo with the Public Security Bureau database.

This will eliminate the possibility of incorrect identification of the person and will help significantly reduce the level of crimes in which scammers use someone else's passports to obtain marriage certificates. The new system is able to "identify" a person in 0.3 seconds - the usual verification takes 10 minutes. The developers argue that the technology will be able to distinguish between twins (if they have different fingerprints) and identify the faces of people who underwent plastic surgeries - the previous system had difficulties with it.
