Face 2026

Submission Requirements – Part 1

Guidelines and technical requirements for submitting algorithms to the LivDet Face 2026 competition.

Submission Format Requirements – Algorithms (Image and Video Categories)

Participants must submit their solutions as a Docker container image containing the complete runnable system.

Container Requirements

  • The container must accept a directory of PNG/JPG test images as input.
  • The container must output a CSV file containing:
  • Image filename
  • Liveness score in the range [0–100]

Submission Package

The submission must include a README file describing:

  • Execution command
  • Required CPU/GPU resources
  • Expected runtime
  • Description of any external model weights used

Source code submission is optional but encouraged for transparency. However, evaluation will be performed exclusively using the provided Docker container.

Execution Environment:

All submitted solutions will be executed by the organizers on secured Clarkson University servers under the following environment:

  • Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  • CPU: Intel Xeon multi-core processors
  • GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4090 (CUDA 12.x compatible)
  • RAM: 128 GB
  • No Internet access permitted during execution
  • No external API calls allowed

Each Docker container will be executed in an isolated environment without network access to ensure fairness and prevent data leakage.
