       abstract = {User authentication is a crucial part of data security, and biometrics is an advantageous way of achieving this. Face images capture being minimally invasive and easy to acquire makes face recognition a good contender for being used in a lot of applications that require to know if the user is really who he claims he is.
In this thesis, I compare the performance of multiple existing face recognition systems on different datasets.
I then present how a convolutional neural network system works, and show the performance results of such a system trained from scratch for face recognition. I show that training a big neural network with few images is detrimental, and a big training dataset is required.
An experiment on racial bias evaluation is then presented with methods to reduce the disparity between ethnicity in the products of a face recognition system.},
