With the emergence of biometric authentication systems, template protection for biometrics
captured attention in the recent years. The privacy concern arises due to storage and misuse …

With the rapid growth in smartphone usage, more organizations begin to focus on providing
better services for mobile users. User identification can help these organizations to identify …

This work presents a method based on information‐theoretic analysis of iris biometric that
aims to extract homogeneous regions of high entropy. Successful extraction of these regions …

In an ideal gadget-free environment the user is interacting with the environment and the
services through only “natural” means. This imposes restrictions on many aspects of the …

Biometric-based cryptographic key generation is regarded as a data mining approach that
uses knowledge discovery techniques to extract biometric information to generate …

Transparent authentication on mobile phones suffers from privacy issues especially when
biometric information is involved. In this paper, we propose a solution to address those two …

As the information age matures, a biometric identification technology will be at the heart of
computer interaction with humans and the biosphere in which they reside. Hence, the …

Based on palmprint and convolutional code, a biometrics encryption method is proposed.
Firstly, the period of randomly generated keys are extended. It is then encoded with our …

Password-based systems authenticate users with cryptographic one-way hashes without
storing plaintext passwords. The method prevents a hacker from reversing the hashes and …

Images very often get contaminated by different types of noise like impulse noise, Gaussian
noise, spackle noise etc. due to malfunctioning of camera sensors during acquisition or …
