Biometric systems are becoming increasingly important, since they provide more reliable and efficient means of identity verification. Biometric gait recognition (i.e. recognizing people from the way they walk) is one of the recent attractive topics in biometric research. This paper presents biometric user recognition based on gait. Biometric gait recognition is categorized into three groups bas...

Form a privacy perspective most concerns against the common use of biometrics arise from the storage and misuse of biometric data. Biometric cryptosystems and cancelable biometrics represent emerging technologies of biometric template protection addressing these concerns and improving public confidence and acceptance of biometrics. In addition, biometric cryptosystems provide mechanisms for bio...

A biometric system is essentially a pattern recognition system that operates by acquiring biometric data from an individual, extracting a feature set from the acquired data, and comparing this feature set against the template set in the database. Multimodal biometric systems are becoming more and more popular, they have more accuracy as compared to unimodal biometric systems. On the other hand ...

In this paper, we present a new biometric verification system. The proposed system employs a novel biometric hashing scheme that uses our proposed quantization method. The proposed quantization method is based on error-correcting output codes which are used for classification problems in the literature. We improve the performance of the random projection based biometric hashing scheme proposed ...

A multimodal biometric system is applied to recognize individuals for authentication using neural networks. In this paper multimodal biometric algorithm is designed by integrating iris, finger vein, palm print and face biometric traits. Normalized score level fusion approach is applied and optimized, encoded for matching decision. It is a multilevel wavelet, phase based fusion algorithm. This r...

Biometrics is the science and technology of measuring and analyzing biological data of human body, extracting a feature set from the acquired data, and comparing this set against to the template set in the database. Experimental studies show that Unimodal biometric systems had many disadvantages regarding performance and accuracy. Multimodal biometric systems perform better than unimodal biomet...

Biometrics based personal identification is regarded as an effective method for automatically recognizing a person’s identity with confidence. A multimodal biometric system consolidates the evidence presented by multiple biometric sources and typically better recognition performance compare to systems based on a single biometric modality. This paper proposes a novel multipartite algorithm for s...
