A template privacy protection scheme for fingerprint minutiae descriptors

Leila Mirmohamadsadeghi, Andrzej Drygajlo

It is important in biometric person recognition systems to protect personal data and privacy of users. This paper introduces a new mechanism to revoke and protect fingerprint minutiae information, which can be used in today’s security-aware society. The re ...

Session variability modelling for face authentication

Sébastien Marcel, Laurent El Shafey

This study examines session variability modelling for face authentication using Gaussian mixture models. Session variability modelling aims to explicitly model and suppress detrimental within-class (inter-session) variation. The authors examine two techniq ...

Spoofing Attacks To 2D Face Recognition Systems With 3D Masks

Sébastien Marcel

Vulnerability to spoofing attacks is a serious drawback for many biometric systems. Among all biometric traits, face is the one that is exposed to the most serious threat, since it is exceptionally easy to access. The limited work on fraud detection capabi ...

Biometrics for Identity Documents and Smart Cards: European Perspective

Andrzej Drygajlo

With an increase in identity fraud and the emphasis on security, there is a growing and urgent need to efficiently identify humans both locally and remotely on a routine basis. The appearance of biometric identity documents such as passports, visas, nation ...

Multi-system biometric authentication

Norman Hoon Thian Poh

Verifying a person's identity claim by combining multiple biometric systems (fusion) is a promising solution to identity theft and automatic access control. This thesis contributes to the state-of-the-art of multimodal biometric fusion by improving the und ...

About Machine-Readable Travel Documents

Serge Vaudenay, Martin Vuagnoux, Jean Monnerat

Passports are now equipped with RFID chips that contain private information, biometric data, and a digital signature by issuing authorities. We review most of applicable security and privacy issues. We argue that the main privacy issue is not unauthorized ...

Biometric Person Authentication IS A Multiple Classifier Problem

Samy Bengio

Several papers have already shown the interest of using multiple classifiers in order to enhance the performance of biometric person authentication systems. In this paper, we would like to argue that the core task of Biometric Person Authentication is actu ...
