Who are you?

[EN]Most automatic recognition systems are focused on recognizing, given a single mug-shot of an individual, any new image of that individual. Most verification systems are designed to authenticate an identity provided by the user. However, the previous work rarely focus on the problem of detecting when a new individual, i.e., an unknown one, is present. The goal of the work presented in this paper deals with the possibility of providing the system with basic tools to detect when a new individual starts an interactive session, in order to allow the system to add or improve an identity model in the database. Experiments carried out with a set of 36 different individuals show promising results.
