A big biometric security company in the UK, Facewatch, is in hot water after their facial recognition system caused a major snafu - the system wrongly identified a 19-year-old girl as a shoplifter.

Thanks! Appreciate it, will take a look when I have time
Np.
As someone else pointed out in another comment. I’ve been saying the x% accuracy number incorrectly. It’s just a colloquial way of conveying the accuracy. The truth is that no one in the industry uses “percent accuracy” and instead use FMR (false match rate) and FNMR (false non-match rate) as well as some other metrics.
