Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media can align face images, classify face images, and verify face images by employing a deep neural network (DNN). A 3D-aligned face image can be generated from a 2D face image. An identity of the 2D face image can be classified based on provision of the 3D-aligned face image to the DNN. The identity of the 2D face image can comprise a feature vector.
