Adoption of compression technology is often required for wireless cardiovascular monitoring, due to the enormous size of electrocardiogram (ECG) signal and limited bandwidth of Internet. However, compressed ECG must be decompressed before performing human identification using present research on ECG based biometric techniques. This additional step of decompression creates a significant processi...

This paper proposes a Biometric identification system for person identification using two biometric traits hand geometry and palm print. The hand image captured from digital camera is preprocessed to identify key points on palm region of hand. Identified key points are used to find hand geometry feature and palm print Region of interest (ROI). The discriminative palm print features are extracte...

Biometric authentication of a person is highly challenging and complex problem. Face and gait identifications in video have received significant attention. Consequently, their identification problems have challenges due to their large varying appearances and high complex pattern distributions. However, the complementary properties of these two biometrics suggest fusion of them. Face identificat...

Biometric recognition refers to the use of biological characteristics for identification and verification of individuals. Use of biometric is increasing nowadays because biometric characteristics are difficult to replicate and lifelong. Applications which require only the authorized persons to access the resources are information systems, National id systems, voter and driver registrations, doc...

1053-5888/15©2015IEEE B iometrics were originally developed for identification, such as for criminal investigations. More recently, biometrics have been also utilized for authentication. Most biometric authentication systems today match a user’s biometric reading against a stored reference template generated during enrollment. If the reading and the template are sufficiently close, the authenti...

With an increasing emphasis on security, automated personal identification using hand vein biometric feature is becoming a very active topic in both research and practical applications. The objective of this work is to present a biometric authentication system for high security physical access control based on hand vein pattern. Hand vein biometric is selected, as it is foolproof, offers higher...

Image Segmentation for Biometric Identification Systems

The survey on palmprint and fingerprint has been investigated over many years. Fingerprint is a popular biometric identification technology and studies are still going on in the palmprint identification. But researches based on the multimodal biometric that combines palmprint and fingerprint technology, which will provide better security and robustness comparing to the stand alone model have no...

This paper proposes an optimized iris recognition system which is suitable for client applications with several security levels. The innovations are the low dimensionality of the iris feature space and the hierarchical classification-based identification method; in this approach the biometric samples are processed in 3 stages to provide identification final decisions. The proposed design soluti...

in this study, two aphid species i.e. macrosiphoniella vallesiacae jörg & lample, 1988 on artemisia aucheri and a. sieberi and uroleucon pilosellae (börner, 1933) (hem.: aphididae) on scorzonera sp. were collected which are reported here for the first time from iran. the biometric data of the iranian populations of these two aphid species are given. an identification key to the apterous vivipar...
