The speaker’s biometric voice fingerprint may be derived from voice as a whole, or from the vocal tract and glottal signals, after separation by inverse filtering. This last approach has been used by the authors in early work, where it has been shown that the biometric fingerprint obtained from the glottal source or related speech residuals gives a good description of the speaker’s identity and...

Biometric authentication has attracted attention because of its high security and convenience. However, biometric feature such as fingerprint can not be revoked like passwords. Thus once the biometric data of a user stored in the system has been compromised, it can not be used for authentication securely for his/her whole life long. To address this issue, an authentication scheme called cancela...

A biometric system which is based only on a single biometric identifier in making a personal identification is often not able to meet the desired performance requirements. Multimodal biometrics is an emerging field of biometric technology, where more than one biometric trait to improve the combined performance. We introduce a bimodal biometric system which integrates face and fingerprint. This ...

A single biometric indicator used in biometric system that is uncomfortable with noisy data in user verification process. There are some kinds of restrictions on degree of freedom with some unacceptable error rates. With existing of these problems it’s very difficult for particular to improve the performance a biometric system. In biometric system finger recognition is very necessary process fo...

The system explores the possibility of combining two biometric systems for generating virtual identities. In biometric system the physical or behavioural traits are used for fusion. Biometric authentication provides high level of security. The proposed approach is to combine the palm print and fingerprint image using an appropriate fusion scheme. The comparison of database template and the inpu...

Fingerprint-based identification is one of the most well-known and publicized biometrics for personal identification. It remains a reliable, efficient and commonly accepted biometric. In this paper, a fingerprint recognition system for identifying the low quality fingerprint images on Myanmar National Registration Cards (NRCs) is developed. Traditional minutia based approach is not robust to po...

A biometric identify verification system tries to verify user identities by comparing some sort of behavioral or physiological trait of the user to a previously stored sample of the trait. The recent developments in the biometrics area have lead to smaller, faster and cheaper systems, which in turn has increased the number of possible application areas for biometric identity verification. Today...

An embedded Crypto-Biometric authentication scheme for ATM banking systems is proposed in our paper. In this scheme, cryptography and biometric techniques are fused together for person authentication to ameliorate the security level. The fingerprint template including singular points, frequency of ridges and minutiae are stored at the central banking server when enrollment. At the time of trans...

As biometrics gains popularity, there is an increasing concern about privacy and misuse of biometric data held in central repositories. Furthermore, biometric verification systems face challenges arising from noise and intra-class variations. To tackle both problems, a multimodal biometric verification system combining fingerprint and voice modalities is proposed. The system combines the two mo...

In this paper, the authors present a multimodal biometric system using face and fingerprint features with the incorporation of Zernike Moment (ZM) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) Neural Network for personal authentication. It has been proven that face authentication is fast but not reliable while fingerprint authentication is reliable but inefficient in database retrieval. With regard to this f...
