Face Detection and Verification using Local Binary Patterns

This thesis proposes a robust Automatic Face Verification (AFV) system using Local Binary Patterns (LBP). AFV is mainly composed of two modules: Face Detection (FD) and Face Verification (FV). The purpose of FD is to determine whether there are any face in ...

Compensating User-Specific Information with User-Independent Information in Biometric Authentication Tasks

Samy Bengio, Norman Hoon Thian Poh

Biometric authentication is a process of verifying an identity claim using a person's behavioral and physiological characteristics. This is in general a binary classification task because a system either accepts or rejects an identity claim. However, a bio ...

EER of Fixed and Trainable Fusion Classifiers: A Theoretical Study with Application to Biometric Authentication Tasks

Samy Bengio, Norman Hoon Thian Poh

Biometric authentication is a process of verifying an identity claim using a person's behavioural and physiological characteristics. Due to the vulnerability of the system to environmental noise and variation caused by the user, fusion of several biometric ...

How Do Correlation and Variance of Base-Experts Affect Fusion in Biometric Authentication Tasks?

Samy Bengio, Norman Hoon Thian Poh

Combining multiple information sources such as subbands, streams (with different features) and multi modal data has shown to be a very promising trend, both in experiments and to some extend in real-life biometric authentication applications. Despite consi ...

Local Features and 1D-HMMs for Fast and Robust Face Authentication

It has been previously demonstrated that systems based on Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are suitable for face recognition. The proposed approaches in the literature are either HMMs with one-dimensional (1D-HMMs) or two-dimensional (2D-HMMs) topology. Both ha ...

Protecting identity documents by microstructure color differences

Roger Hersch

The development of plastic card printers has led to the widespread use of identity documents printed on plastic cards, such as ID cards, driving licenses, and access key cards. This paper presents a new security feature based on a technique for embedding a ...
