This paper presents a survey of the use of biometrics in the field of computer security, with a
focus on biometric authentication. We briefly outline the historical background on concepts …

Much of the literature on biometric system design (as opposed to algorithmic, hardware or
test design) has focused on system error rates and scaling equations [1–5]. In this chapter, I …

In the recent years, a number of recognition and authentication systems based on biometric
measurements have been proposed. Algorithms and sensors have been developed to …

Biometrics is considered as a promising solution among traditional methods based on" what
we own"(such as a key) or" what we know"(such as a password). It is based on" what we …

Biometrics is an automated method of recognizing a person based on her physiological or
behavioral characteristics, and is potentially a powerful and reliable method for personal …

The proliferation of information access terminals and the growing use of applications (such
