We present in this communication a new biometric system based on the use of hand veins acquired by an infrared imager. After the preprocessing stage and binarization, the vein imag...
In this paper, we propose a novel fuzzy 3D face ethnicity categorization algorithm, which contains two stages, learning and mapping. In learning stage, the visual codes are first l...
Many large-scale biometric systems operate in the identification mode and include multimodal information. While biometric fusion is a well-studied problem, most of the fusion schem...
Abstract. We present a novel approach for human gait recognition that inherently combines appearance and motion. Dynamic texture descriptors, Local Binary Patterns from Three Ortho...

Abstract. We explore the effects of time lapse on iris biometrics using a data set of images with four years time lapse between the earliest and most recent images of an iris (13 s...
This paper describes the objectives, the tasks proposed to the participants and the associated protocols in terms of database and assessment tools of two present competitions on fi...
We present generative models dedicated to face recognition. Our models consider data extracted from color face images and use Bayesian Networks to model relationships between diffe...
Face recognition with partial face images is an important problem in face biometrics. The necessity can arise in not so constrained environments such as in surveillance video, or p...
Biometric authentication over public networks leads to a variety of privacy issues that needs to be addressed before it can become popular. The primary concerns are that the biomet...

Abstract. Cryptographic transactions form the basis of many common security systems found throughout computer networks. Supporting these transactions with biometrics is very desira...
