The widespread deployment of Automated Fingerprint Identification Systems (AFIS) in law
enforcement and border control applications has heightened the need for ensuring that the …

Abstract Information fusion refers to the reconciliation of evidence presented by multiple
sources of information in order to generate a decision. In the context of biometrics, evidence …

Authenticating users is a continuous tradeoff between the level of invasiveness and the
degree of system security. Password protection has been the most widely authentication …

In two-class score-based problems the combination of scores from an ensemble of experts is
generally used to obtain distributions for positive and negative patterns that exhibit a larger …

In this paper, a feature-level fusion approach for improving the efficiency of ear image
verification is proposed. SIFT is used to extract the features on a ear images at different …

In this paper we describe a multi-modal ear and face biometric system. The system is
comprised of two components: a 3D ear recognition component and a 2D face recognition …

In this paper, we present an efficient feature level fusion scheme that we apply on face and
palmprint images. The features for each modality are obtained using Log Gabor transform …

In this paper, we propose a protected on-line signature based biometric authentication
system. The original signature templates are protected by transforming them in a non …

Wavelets are widely used to extract the texture features for pattern recognition applications
including biometric authentication. This can be attributed to the discriminating capability of …

In biometric identification systems, the identity associated with the input data is determined
by comparing it against every entry in the database. This exhaustive matching process …
