Environmental Testing Methodology in Biometrics
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, biometrics is used in many security systems and these systems can be located in different environments. As many experts claim and previous works have demonstrated, environmental conditions influence biometric performance. Nevertheless, there is not a specific methodology for testing this influence at the moment. Due to it is essential to carry out this kind of evaluations, a new ISO standard was proposed for regularizing them. Such standard was accepted and it has to be specified now. In this work, authors have analyzed the first proposal of this project and other standards about environmental testing. According to this new ISO proposal and current ISO standards and considering aspects of these related standards focused in biometric evaluations, a detailed methodology has been defined. This methodology consists of two parts: on the one hand, the definition of the environmental factors to analyse, including how to generate, control and measure them, and on the other hand, the specification about how to perform the biometric evaluation.

Measuring Usability via Biometrics
This paper reviews some exploratory research focused on developing a usability methodology based on objective biometrics computing using physiological data (ECG, respiration, and GSR sensors, as well as an infrared eye tracker) as well as behavior data (mouse and keystroke input). Following a high level literature review, various biometrics are discussed with the goal of motivating further stud...
متن کاملCross Cultural Aspects of Biometrics
In this paper we summarize our first research results in the field of Cross Culture user authentication. We will investigate intercultural aspects of biometrics, both of technical and legal nature. Besides biometric based user authentication, Human-to-Computer interfaces are an important part of our work. We present a methodology for intercultural and multimodal data recording and testing of di...
متن کاملRotation-based multiple testing in the multivariate linear model.
In observational microarray studies, issues of confounding invariably arise. One approach to account for measured confounders is to include them as covariates in a multivariate linear model. For this model, however, the application of permutation-based multiple testing procedures is problematic because exchangeability of responses, in general, does not hold. Nevertheless, it is possible to achi...
متن کاملLikelihood-ratio tests for hidden Markov models.
We consider hidden Markov models as a versatile class of models for weakly dependent random phenomena. The topic of the present paper is likelihood-ratio testing for hidden Markov models, and we show that, under appropriate conditions, the standard asymptotic theory of likelihood-ratio tests is valid. Such tests are crucial in the specification of multivariate Gaussian hidden Markov models, whi...
متن کاملShrunken p-values for assessing differential expression with applications to genomic data analysis.
In many scientific problems involving high-throughput technology, inference must be made involving several hundreds or thousands of hypotheses. Recent attention has focused on how to address the multiple testing issue; much focus has been devoted toward the use of the false discovery rate. In this article, we consider an alternative estimation procedure titled shrunken p-values for assessing di...
