User verification systems that use a single biometric indicator often have to contend with
noisy sensor data, restricted degrees of freedom, non-universality of the biometric trait and …

Establishing identity is becoming critical in our vastly interconnected society. Questions such
as" Is she really who she claims to be?,"" Is this person authorized to use this facility?," or" Is …

An automatic personal identification system based solely on fingerprints or faces is often not
able to meet the system performance requirements. We have developed a prototype …

The classical way of attempting to solve the face (or object) recognition problem is by using
large and representative data sets. In many applications, though, only one sample per class …

Popular movies grab and hold our attention. One reason for this is that storytelling is
culturally important to us, but another is that general narrative formulae have been honed …

Users are increasingly dependent on mobile devices. However, current authentication
methods like password entry are significantly more frustrating and difficult to perform on …

Multibiometric systems fuse information from different sources to compensate for the
limitations in performance of individual matchers. We propose a framework for optimal …

This second edition of the must-read work in the field presents generic computational
models and techniques that can be used for the development of evolving, adaptive modeling …

Multibiometric systems Page 1 Traditionally, passwords (knowledge-based security) and ID
cards (token-based security) have been used to restrict access to secure systems. However …

Vision-based human identification at a distance has recently gained growing interest from
computer vision researchers. This paper describes a human recognition algorithm by …
