Abstract
This document describes techniques and systems that enable face authentication embedding migration and drift-compensation. The techniques and systems include a user device that is updated to include both a current version of firmware and an updated version of the firmware. Then, an indication of a face-authentication attempt is received along with image data associated with a user's face. After successful authentication, using the current version of firmware on the image data, the user device uses the updated version of the firmware on the same image data to generate a new embedding. The new embedding is stored as part of a migration profile for the user. Additional new embeddings are collected over a series of subsequent face-authentication attempts until a complete set of new embeddings is stored for the migration profile. Then, the old profile is deleted and the migration profile becomes the enrollment profile used for face authentication.
