Biometrics Evaluation Under Spoofing Attacks

Sébastien Marcel, André Anjos, Ivana Chingovska

While more accurate and reliable than ever, the trustworthiness of biometric verification systems is compromised by the emergence of spoofing attacks. Responding to this threat, numerous research publications address isolated spoofing detection, resulting ...

Palm vein recognition with local texture patterns

Leila Mirmohamadsadeghi, Andrzej Drygajlo

Biometric recognition using the palm vein characteristics is emerging as a touchless and spoof-resistant hand-based means to identify individuals or to verify their identity. One of the open challenges in this field is the creation of fast and modality-dep ...

On the Vulnerability of Finger Vein Recognition to Spoofing

Sébastien Marcel, Pedro Tomé

The vulnerability of finger vein recognition to spoofing is studied in this paper. A collection of spoofing finger vein images has been created from real finger vein samples. Finger vein images are printed using a commercial printer and then, presented at ...

Spoofing Face Recognition with 3D Masks

Sébastien Marcel

Spoofing is the act of masquerading as a valid user by falsifying data to gain an illegitimate access. Vulnerability of recognition systems to spoofing attacks (presentation attacks) is still an open security issue in biometrics domain and among all biomet ...

Cross-Database Evaluation With an Open Finger Vein Sensor

Sébastien Marcel, Laurent El Shafey, Pedro Tomé

Finger vein recognition is a recent biometric application, which relies on the use of human finger vein patterns beneath the skin's surface. While several methods have been proposed in the literature, its applicability to uncontrolled scenarios has not yet ...

Face liveness detection using dynamic texture

Sébastien Marcel, André Anjos, Tiago De Freitas Pereira

User authentication is an important step to protect information, and in this context, face biometrics is potentially advantageous. Face biometrics is natural, intuitive, easy to use, and less human-invasive. Unfortunately, recent work has revealed that fac ...

Comparison of Two Methods for Unsupervised Person Identification in TV Shows

Jean-Marc Odobez, Paul Gay

We address the task of identifying people appearing in TV shows. The target persons are all people whose identity is said or written, like the journalists and the well known people, as politicians, athletes, celebrities, etc. In our approach, overlaid name ...

Bi-Modal Biometric Authentication on Mobile Phones in Challenging Conditions

Sébastien Marcel, Laurent El Shafey

This paper examines the issue of face, speaker and bi-modal authentication in mobile environments when there is significant condition mismatch. We introduce this mismatch by enrolling client models on high quality biometric samples obtained on a laptop com ...

Motion-Based Counter-Measures to Photo Attacks in Face Recognition

Sébastien Marcel, André Anjos, Murali Mohan Chakka

Identity spoofing is a contender for high-security face recognition applications. With the advent of social media and globalized search, our face images and videos are wide-spread on the internet and can be potentially used to attack biometric systems with ...
