In this paper alternatives of tamper-proof and privacy-protected biometric identification systems are shown. One approach to secure such databases is to use cryptography. With its help it is possible to highly protect a system from any external attacker but an internal attacker still has direct access to all stored biometric data. This risk shall be avoided by using biometric encryption with an...

Many biometric methods are closely connected with methods of pattern recognition and image analysis. The realization of a number of biometric technologies requires using the last achievements in this area. Some elements of technology based on some methods of image analysis are demonstrated by the example of iris person identification. From a position of organizing the educational process, labor...

Biometric is the science of establishing the identity of on individual based on physical or behavioral traits such as face, fingerprint, Iris. The increasing popularity of biometrics offers personal identification systems greater security and convenient than password authentication system. A biometric system operates by acquiring raw biometric data from a subject, extracting a feature set from ...

Palmprint recognition has been investigated over 10 years,After palmprint , fingerprints or iris digital, biometric identification of an individual can be done through the veins of the hand. This paper provides an overview of current biometric systems technology based on hand vein. We first review the component modules including the algorithms they employ. Finally, a summary of the accuracy res...

O n the basis of media hype alone, you might conclude that biometric passwords will soon replace their alphanumeric counterparts with versions that cannot be stolen, forgotten , lost, or given to another person. But what if the performance estimates of these systems are far more impressive than their actual performance? To measure the real-life performance of biometric systems—and to understand...

personal authentication and identification as compared to the traditional authentication methods. Biometric templates are vulnerable to variety of attacks due to their inherent nature. When a person's biometric is compromised his identity is lost. In contrast to password, biometric is not revocable. Therefore, providing security to the stored biometric template is very crucial. Crypto biometric...

This dissertation describes certain special art of biometric systems. General biometric systems are well known in public and systems based on the fingerprint recognition belong, without question, to the most familiar ones. Fingerprints have been used for identification and authentication for a long time because their uniqueness and reliability have been proven in everyday life. Nowadays, there ...

Use of biometrics for person identification has increased tremendously over the past decade, e.g., in large scale national identification programs, for law enforcement and border control applications, and social welfare initiatives. For such large scale applications with a diverse target population, unimodal biometric systems, which use a single biometric trait (e.g., fingerprints), are inadequ...

Identification of persons through the eyes is in the field of biometrical science. Many security systems are based on biometric methods of personal identification, to determine whether a person is presenting itself truly. The human eye contains an extremely large number of individual characteristics that make it particularly suitable for the process of identifying a person. Today, the eye is co...

ABSTRACT: This paper concerns the practical aspects of personal identification based on a statistical analysis of their digitized iris images. Presuming the existence of a database of their numeral representation it is possible to approach the identification process in two ways. If it is a priori known that the tested iris has been already scanned and its characteristics are included in the dat...
