A multiple classification system based on a new boosting technique has been approached utilizing different biometric traits, that is, color face, iris and eye along with fingerprints of right and left hands, handwriting, palm-print, gait (silhouettes) and wrist-vein for person authentication. The images of different biometric traits were taken from different standard databases such as FEI, UTIRIS, CASIA, IAM and CIE. This system is comprised of three different super-classifiers to individually perform person identification. The individual classifiers corresponding to each super-classifier in their turn identify different biometric features and their conclusions are integrated together in their respective super-classifiers. The decisions from individual super-classifiers are integrated together through a mega-super-classifier to perform the final conclusion using programming based boosting. The mega-super-classifier system using different super-classifiers in a compact form is more reliable than single classifier or even single super-classifier system. The system has been evaluated with accuracy, precision, recall and F-score metrics through holdout method and confusion matrix for each of the single classifiers, super-classifiers and finally the mega-super-classifier. The different performance evaluations are appreciable. Also the learning and the recognition time is fairly reasonable. Thereby making the system is efficient and effective.

A biometric system determines the identity of a person by measuring physical features that can distinguish that person from others. Since biometric features have many variations and can be easily corrupted by noises and deformations, it is necessary to apply machine learning techniques to treat the data. When applying the conventional machine learning methods in designing a specific biometric system, however, one first runs into the difficulty of collecting sufficient data for each person to be registered to the system. In addition, there can be an almost infinite number of variations of non-registered data. Therefore, it is difficult to analyze and predict the distributional properties of real data that are essential for the system to deal with in practical applications. These difficulties require a new framework of identification and verification that is appropriate and efficient for the specific situations of biometric systems. As a preliminary solution, this paper proposes a simple but theoretically well-defined method based on a statistical test theory. Our computational experiments on real-world data show that the proposed method has potential for coping with the actual difficulties in biometrics.

바이오인식 시스템은 변하지 않는 고유의 특성으로 인하여 범죄를 포함한 다양한 분야에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 바이오인식정보가 불법 사용자에게 누설되었을 때 많은 문제점을 지니고 있다. 본 논문에서는 지문과 얼굴 정보를 보호하기 위하여 실수형 오류정보 부호 코드화를 수행하는 실수형 퍼지 볼트를 이용한 다중 바이오 인식 시스템을 개발한다. 제안된 방법은 실수형 퍼지볼트를 이용함으로써 분실시 재생성할 수 없는 지문 및 얼굴 특징값과 달리 개인 킷값을 수시로 변경할 수 있다는 장점과 두 가지 바이오정보를 융합함으로써 보안이 강화된 바이오인식 시스템을 구현할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 제안된 방법의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 실험한 결과 기존 방법에 비하여 우수한 결과를 나타냈다.

Humans are able to recognize small number of people they know well by the way they walk. This ability represents basic motivation for using human gait as the means for biometric identification. Such biometric can be captured at public places from a distance without subject's collaboration, awareness or even consent. Although current approaches give encouraging results, we are still far from effective use in practical applications. In general, methods set various constraints to circumvent the influence factors like changes of view, walking speed, capture environment, clothing, footwear, object carrying, that have negative impact on recognition results. In this paper we investigate the influence of walking speed variation to different visual based gait recognition approaches and propose normalization based on geometric transformations, which mitigates its influence on recognition results. With the evaluation on MoBo gait dataset we demonstrate the benefits of using such normalization in combination with different types of gait recognition approaches.

Biometric technologies have become widely available in many different fields. However, biometric technologies using existing physical features such as fingerprints, facial features, irises, and veins must consider forgery and alterations targeting them through fraudulent physical characteristics such as fake fingerprints. Thus, a trend toward next-generation biometric technologies using behavioral biometrics of a living person, such as bio-signals and walking characteristics, has emerged. Accordingly, in this study, we developed a bio-signal authentication algorithm using electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, which are the most uniquely identifiable form of bio-signal available. When using ECG signals with our system, the personal identification and authentication accuracy are approximately 90% during a state of rest. When using fingerprints alone, the equal error rate (EER) is 0.243%; however, when fusing the scores of both the ECG signal and fingerprints, the EER decreases to 0.113% on average. In addition, as a function of detecting a presentation attack on a mobile phone, a method for rejecting a transaction when a fake fingerprint is applied was successfully implemented.

In these days, the wearable devices have been developed for measuring biological data effectively. However, wearable devices have tissue allege and noise problem. Also, it is impossible for a remote center to identify the person whose data are measured by wearable devices, which could trigger a communication problem over treatment. To solve these problems, biometric measurement based on a non-contact method, such as face image sequencing is necessary. This makes it possible to measure biometric data without any operation and side effects. This system can monitor the biological signals of people in real time without allege and noise and simultaneously identify them. In this paper, we propose an authentication process while measuring biometric data, through a non-contact method.

This paper is about the personal identification algorithm using an ECG that has been studied by a few researchers recently. Previously published algorithm can be classified as two methods. One is the method that analyzes ECG features and the other is the morphological analysis of ECG. The main characteristic of proposed algorithm uses together two methods. The algorithm consists of training and testing procedures. In training procedure, the features of all recognition objects' ECG were extracted and the PCA was performed for morphological analysis of ECG. In testing procedure, 6 candidate ECG's were chosen by morphological analysis and then the analysis of features among candidate ECG's was performed for final recognition. We choose 18 ECG files from MIT-BIH Normal Sinus Rhythm Database for estimating algorithm performance. The algorithm extracts 100 heartbeats from each ECG file, and use 40 heartbeats for training and 60 heartbeats for testing. The proposed algorithm shows clearly superior performance in all ECG data, amounting to 90.96% heartbeat recognition rate and 100% ECG recognition rate.

The wireless body area networks (WBANs) consist of wearable computing devices and can support various healthcare-related applications. There exist two crucial issues when WBANs are utilized for healthcare applications. One is the protection of the sensitive biometric data transmitted over the insecure wireless channels. The other is the design of effective medical management mechanisms. In this paper, a secure medical information management system is proposed and implemented on a TinyOS-based WBAN test bed to simultaneously address these two issues. In this system, the electronic medical record (EMR) is bound to the biometric data with a novel fragile zero-watermarking scheme based on the modified visual secret sharing (MVSS). In this manner, the EMR can be utilized not only for medical management but also for data integrity checking. Additionally, both the biometric data and the EMR are encrypted, and the EMR is further protected by the MVSS. Our analysis and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system not only protects the confidentialities of both the biometric data and the EMR but also offers reliable patient information authentication, explicit healthcare operation verification and undeniable doctor liability identification for WBANs.
