Verification request authentication machine

A device authenticates a request to verify a user. The device accesses a face image captured by the device that depicts a face of the person and includes a characteristic noise pattern inserted by a camera of the device, this noise pattern may indicate manufacturing deviations of the camera. The face image and the noise pattern are input into an artificial intelligence engine that outputs a face score based on the face image and a device score based on the characteristic noise pattern. The device next submits the request with the scores to a server machine and obtains an authentication score from the server machine where the authentication score is based on the face score and device score. The device then presents an indication that the request to verify the person is authentic based on a comparison of the obtained authentication score to a threshold authentication score. The authentication score may also be based on a location score determined by the location of the device.
