چکیده

Biometric systems based on uni-modal traits are characterized by noisy sensor data, restricted degrees of freedom, non-universality and are susceptible to spoof attacks. Multi-modal biometric systems seek to alleviate some of these drawbacks by providing multiple evidences of the same identity. In this paper, a user-score-based weighting technique for integrating the iris and signature traits is presented. This user-specific weighting technique has proved to be an efficient and effective fusion scheme which increases the authentication accuracy rate of multi-modal biometric systems. The weights are used to indicate the importance of matching scores output by each biometrics trait. The experimental results show that our biometric system based on the integration of iris and signature traits achieve a false rejection rate (FRR) of 0.08% and a false acceptance rate (FAR) of 0.01%.

A bio-cryptographic system based on offline signature images

In bio-cryptography, biometric traits are replacing traditional passwords for secure exchange of cryptographic keys. The Fuzzy Vault (FV) scheme has been successfully employed to design bio-cryptographic systems as it can absorb a wide range of variation in biometric traits. Despite the intensity of research on FV based on physiological traits like fingerprints, iris, and face, there is no conc...

Secure Biometric Authentication System Architecture using Error Correcting Codes and Distributed Cryptography

The most emerging technology for people identification and authentication is biometrics. In contrast with traditional recognition approaches, biometric authentication relies on who a person is or what a person does, being based on strictly personal traits, much more difficult to be forgotten, lost, stolen, copied or forged than traditional data. In this paper, we focus on two vulnerable points ...
