The secure identification of a person was and still of great interest in different fields of human activities. The traditional identification methods such as PIN, passwords aren’t capable to achieve a high level of secure identification. In the contrast, the biometrics allows to attain the suitable solution for this vital question. Different types of biometrics are reviewed. Its characteristics...

A new approach to soft biometrics aims to use human labelling as part of the process. This is consistent with analysis of surveillance video where people might be imaged at too low resolution or quality for conventional biometrics to be deployed. In this manner, people use anatomical descriptions of subjects to achieve recognition, rather than the usual measurements of personal characteristics ...

Biometrics is an important security tool which can be used for human identification and authentication to offer a higher level of security than conventional identification methods. Among all available biometrics, Fingerprints are a good choice as they are unique to a person. Fingerprint recognition is a complex pattern recognition problem. This paper proposes fingerprint verification based on c...

Biometrics is used for authentication purpose. Among the various types of biometrics, fingerprint is the most widely accepted biometrics. Biometric systems have several advantages when compared to classical methods such as passwords. Biometric system is vulnerable to various types of attacks. This paper proposes a method to avoid the sensor level attack. This method uses limited ring wedge spec...

Biometrics is physical or behavior characteristics that can be used for human identification. We propose the ear as a biometric and investigate it with both 2D and 3D data. The ICP-based algorithm also demonstrates good scalability with size of dataset. These results are encouraging in that they suggest a strong potential for 3D ear shape as a biometric. Multi-biometric 2D and 3D ear recognitio...

The project entitled “Credit Card Endorsement Using Biometrics in Cloud Computing” is based on the security issues related to data access and data storage in cloud computing. The application focused is on the credit card authentication. The concept of biometrics is integrated along with the cloud for secure data access. The existing system of the credit card allows the user to do the transactio...

Biometric technologies are increasingly being used in a diverse range of contexts, from immigration control, to banking and personal computing. However, there has been little research that has investigated how biometrics are perceived across these different environments. This paper describes a qualitative investigation of the effect of context on attitudes towards biometric technology. Data col...
