VIDEO SECURITY SYSTEM USING A SIAMESE RECONSTRUCTION CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORK FOR POSE-INVARIANT FACE RECOGNITION

A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product is provided for video security. The method includes monitoring an area with a camera. The method also includes capturing, by the camera, live video to provide a live video stream. The method additionally includes detecting and identifying, by a processor using a recognition neural network feeding into a Siamese reconstruction network, a user in the live video stream by employing one or more pose-invariant features. The method further includes controlling, by the processor, an operation of a processor-based machine to change a state of the processor-based machine, responsive to the identified user in the live video stream.
