The undeniable convenience of face-recognition (FR) based biometrics has made it an attractive tool for access control in various applications, from immigration-control to remote banking. Widespread adopti
on of face biometrics, however, depends on the how ...
To address the issues like identity theft and security threats, a continuously evolving technology known as biometrics is presently being deployed in a wide range of personal, government, and commercial applications. Despite the great progress in the field ...
This chapter makes the first attempt to quantify the amount of discriminatory information in finger vein biometric characteristics in terms of Relative Entropy (RE) calculated on genuine and impostor comparison scores using a Nearest Neighbour (NN) estimat ...
In our daily lives, people or devices frequently need to learn their location for many reasons as some services depend on the absolute location or the proximity. The outcomes of positioning systems can have critical effects e.g., on military, emergency. Th ...
The need for automation of the identity recognition process for a vast number of applications resulted in great advancement of biometric systems in the recent years. Yet, many studies indicate that these systems suffer from vulnerabilities to spoofing (pre ...

Recent years have shown an increase in both the accuracy of biometric systems and their practical use. The application of biometrics is becoming widespread with fingerprint sensors in smartphones, automatic face recognition in social networks and video-bas ...
Biometrics already form a significant component of current and emerging identification technologies. Biometrics systems aim to determine or verify the identity of an individual from their behavioral and/or biological characteristics. Despite significant pr ...
Contactless access control systems are critical for security but often vulnerable to relay attacks. In this paper, we define an integrated security and privacy model for access control using distance bounding (DB) which is the most robust solution to preve ...
