The inaugural PAD-IDCard competition at IJCB 2024 established a benchmark for Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) on ID cards, evaluating algorithms in a cross-dataset scenario. The organizers' private-data-trained baseline achieved an AV_rank of 9.10%, substantially outperforming the best competitor's AV_rank of 74.30%, highlighting the critical role of data access and diversity.

Key insights

  • Access to extensive and diverse training data is paramount for high performance and generalization in ID card PAD, as evidenced by the superior performance of organizers' private-data-trained baselines.
  • Screen attacks were identified as the most challenging Presentation Attack Instrument Species (PAIS) to detect, often attributed to the high resolution and variability of modern digital displays.
  • Generalization capabilities are significantly hampered by the variability in ID card designs across countries, with non-ICAO compliant cards proving substantially more difficult for models to process.
