Types of Analyses and What They Check

Here, you'll get acquainted with types of analyses that Oz API provides and will learn how to interpret the output.

Using Oz API, you can perform one of the following analyses:

• biometry,

• quality (liveness, best shot),

• documents (deprecated),

• collection (1:N).

Biometry

The Biometry algorithm allows comparing several media and check if the people on them are the same person or not. As sources, you can use images, videos, and scans of documents (with photo). To perform the analysis, the algorithm requires at least two media (for details, please refer to Rules of Assigning Analyses).

Results overview

• SUCCESS – everything went fine, the analysis has completed successfully;

• DECLINED – the check failed (an attack detected).

If the analysis hasn't been finished yet, the result can be PROCESSING (the analysis is in progress) / FAILED (the analysis failed due to some error and couldn't get finished).

If you have analyzed multiple media, the aggregated status will be SUCCESS only if each analysis on each media has finished with the SUCCESS result.

Quality (Liveness, Best Shot)

The Liveness detection (Quality) algorithm aims to check whether a person in a media is a real human acting in good faith, not a fake of any kind.

The Best Shot algorithm checks for the best shot from a video (a best-quality frame where the face is seen the most properly). It is an addition to liveness.

Results overview

• SUCCESS – everything went fine, the analysis has completed successfully;

• DECLINED – the check failed (an attack detected).

If the analysis hasn't been finished yet, the result can be PROCESSING (the analysis is in progress) / FAILED (the analysis failed due to some error and couldn't get finished).

If you have analyzed multiple media, the aggregated status will be SUCCESS only if each analysis on each media has finished with the SUCCESS result.

Documents

Starting July 1, 2027, the Documents analysis will no longer be available.

The Documents analysis aims to recognize the document and check if its fields are correct according to its type.

Oz API uses a third-party OCR analysis service provided by our partner. If you want to change this service to another one, please contact us.

As an output, you'll get a list of document fields with recognition results for each field and a result of checking that can be:

• The documents passed the check successfully,

• The documents failed to pass the check.

Additionally, the result of Biometry check is displayed.

Collection (1:N)

The Collection checking algorithm is used to determine whether the person on a photo or video is present in the database of pre-uploaded images. The person's face is being compared with the faces of known swindlers or a list of VIPs depending on your needs.

Results overview

• SUCCESS – everything went fine, the analysis has completed successfully;

• DECLINED – the check failed (an attack detected).

If the analysis hasn't been finished yet, the result can be PROCESSING (the analysis is in progress) / FAILED (the analysis failed due to some error and couldn't get finished).

If you have analyzed multiple media, the aggregated status will be SUCCESS only if each analysis on each media has finished with the SUCCESS result.
