Abstract

A face liveness detection method is performed by an electronic device. The method includes: obtaining an initial face image of an object and a face image set of the object captured at N different illumination directions; obtaining N difference images according to the initial face image and the N face images in the face image set; generating a normal map and an albedo map according to the N difference images and the N illumination directions; and determining a face liveness detection result according to the N difference images, the normal map, and the albedo map, the face liveness detection result indicating whether the object has a live face or not. In this application, three-dimensional (3D) geometric information and surface material information of a face image are considered, thereby recognizing the authenticity of the face image, and effectively resisting different face liveness attack manners.
