Abstract. A biometric authentication system operates by acquiring biometric data from a user and comparing it against the template data stored in a database in order to identify a ...
The extraction of “Level 2” detail — ridge terminations, ridge bifurcations, bridges etc. — from digitised images of fingerprints requires an accurate segmentation of the...
Securing biometrics databases from being compromised is one of the most important challenges that must be overcome in order to demonstrate the viability of biometrics based authen...
In this paper we advocate a new technique for the fast identi cation of physical objects based on their physical unclonable features (surface microstructures). The proposed identi...
This paper is concerned with the performance evaluation of fingerprint verification systems. After an initial classification of biometric testing initiatives, we explore both the t...
