____________________________________________________________________ Biometric identification is a pattern recognition based classification system that recognizes an individual by determining its authenticity using a specific physiological or behavioural characteristic (biometric). In contrast to number of commercially available biometric systems for human recognition in the market today, there...

During the last two decades, the extensive utilisation of advanced Information Systems and the Internet have revolutionised the operations of the banking industry leading to vastly improved customer services, streamlined business operations and in particular profitability with reduced unit costs. On the other hand, security breaches and transaction fraud have been on the rise more recently, war...

A highly reliable biometric authentication system can be realised by using multiple biometric models. In this study, a framework that makes use of signaland image-processing algorithms, together with pattern recognition techniques, is applied to solve the problem of biometric pattern recognition in a unified way. In general, this problem can be broken down into the following taxonomy: sensors, ...

We propose the use of eye-movements as a biometric. A case study investigating potentials of eye-movement data for biometric purposes was conducted. Twelve participants’ eye-movements were measured during still and moving objects viewing. The measured data includes pupil sizes and their dynamics, gaze velocities and distances of infrared reflections of the eyes. For still object viewing of 1 se...

This paper presents a methodology for quantitatively establishing the discriminative power of iris biometric data. It is difficult, however, to establish that any biometric modality is capable of distinguishing every person because the classification task has an extremely large and unspecified number of classes. The purpose of this study is to investigate various combinations of features, dista...

Biometrics is the field of technology devoted to verification or authentication of individuals using biological traits. A biometric authentication system verifies the identity of a claimant based on the person’s physical attributes, such as voice, face, or fingerprints. Its application areas include security applications, forensic work, law enforcement applications, and so on. Here we have divi...
