description Face recognition technology has been widely used due to the convenience it provides. However, face recognition is vulnerable to spoofing attacks which limits its usage in sensitive application areas. This work introduces a novel face anti-spoofing system, FASS, that fuses results of two classifiers. One, random forest, uses the identified by us seven no-reference image quality features derived from face images and its results are fused with a deep learning classifier results that uses entire face images as input. Extensive experiments were performed to compare FASS with state-of-the-art anti-spoofing systems on five benchmark datasets: Replay-Attack, CASIA-MFSD, MSU-MFSD, OULU-NPU and SiW. The results show that FASS outperforms all face anti-spoofing systems based on image quality features and is also more accurate than many of the state-of-the-art systems based on deep learning.
