Biometrics is the science and technology of measuring and analyzing biological data of human body, extracting a feature set from the acquired data, and comparing this set against to the template set in the database. Experimental studies show that Unimodal biometric systems had many disadvantages regarding performance and accuracy. Multimodal biometric systems perform better than unimodal biomet...

Advances in biometric recogni on and the increasing use of biometric data prompt significant privacy challenges associated with the possible misuse, loss, or the of biometric data. Biometric comparisons are o en performed by two mutually distrus ul par es, one of which holds a biometric sample while the other owns a possibly large collec on of biometric data. Due to privacy and liability consid...

In computer security, biometrics specifies to validation schemes that rely on considerable substantial characteristics that can be routinely checked. It is utilized in security and admits control applications to indicate scientific physical characteristics and behaviors of a person that could be checked on a mechanized basis. Normally, the biometric security is split into two types, one is base...

Biometrics technology is rapidly progressing and offers attractive opportunities. In recent years, biometric authentication has grown in popularity as a means of personal identification in ATM authentication systems. The prominent biometric methods that may be used for authentication include fingerprint, palmprint, handprint, face recognition, speech recognition, dental and eye biometrics. In t...

—This research describes the method of combining traditional authentication (password and username) with biometric technology, specifically fingerprint authentication. This authentication model is applied in distance education where courses are developed in learning management systems. It introduces the features of distance education as well as the biometric sensor operation. It describes the c...

Automatic fingerprint identification systems (AFIS) provide widely used biometric techniques for personal identification. Fingerprints have the properties of distinctiveness or individuality, and the fingerprints of a particular person remain almost the same (persistence) over time. These properties make fingerprints suitable for biometric uses. AFISs are usually based on minutiae matching. Min...

The use of fingerprint in biometric identification has been the most widely used authentication system. The uniqueness of the fingerprint for every human provides us with all we need for faultless identification. However, during the fingerprint scanning process, the image generated by the scanner may be slightly different during each scan. This paper puts the implementation of Artificial Neural...

There are various biometric features for personal identification but Fingerprints are today the most widely used biometric features for the same. Many automatic systems are there for fingerprint enhancement which is based on ridges and valleys. Automatic fingerprint recognition system is totally based on Fingerprint enhancement. It is necessary to choose the suitable enhancement technique for f...

Fingerprint recognition is one of the most important Biometric techniques among all biometrics. It provides reliable means of biometric authentication due to its features Universality, Distinctiveness, Permanence and Accuracy. It is the method of identifying an individual and it can be used in various application, such as, medical records, criminal investigation, cloud computing communication e...

This paper presents an evaluation of a new biometric electrocardiogram (ECG) for individual authentication. We report the potential of ECG as a biometric and address the research concerns to use ECG-enabled biometric authentication system across a range of conditions. We present a method to delineate ECG waveforms and their end fiducials from each heartbeat. A new authentication strategy is pro...
