Biometric Systems
Biometric Systems provides practitioners with an overview of the principles and methods needed to build reliable biometric systems. It covers three main topics: key biometric technologies, design and management issues, and the performance evaluation of biometric systems for personal verification/identification. The four most widely used technologies are focused on - speech, fingerprint, iris and face recognition. Key features include: in-depth coverage of the technical and practical obstacles which are often neglected by application developers and system integrators and which result in shortfalls between expected and actual performance; and protocols and benchmarks which will allow developers to compare performance and track system improvements.
Privacy in the Age of Biometric Passports
This book delves into the complexities surrounding the implementation of biometric passports, with a focus on their role in enhancing security while balancing the protection of individual privacy. It provides an in-depth analysis of how biometric technology can both safeguard and potentially compromise personal data. Through a critical examination of the biometric passport's functionality, the book explores its potential to secure borders and prevent identity theft, while also addressing the significant risks associated with the storage of sensitive biometric information. The book offers valuable insights for African states, advocating for greater self-sufficiency in developing cryptographic...
Information Security and Cryptology
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Information Security and Cryptology, Inscrypt 2014, held in Beijing, China, in December 2014. The 29 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 93 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on privacy and anonymity, multiparty and outsource computation, signature and security protocols, lattice and public key cryptography, block cipher and hash function, authentication and encryption, elliptic curve, and cryptographic primitive and application.
Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery
The Second International Conference on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery (DaWaK 2000) was held in Greenwich, UK 4–6 September. DaWaK 2000 was a forum where researchers from data warehousing and knowledge discovery disciplines could exchange ideas on improving next generation decision support and data mining systems. The conference focused on the logical and physical design of data warehousing and knowledge discovery systems. The scope of the papers covered the most recent and relevant topics in the areas of data warehousing, multidimensional databases, OLAP, knowledge discovery and mining complex databases. These proceedings contain the technical papers selected for presentation at ...
Recent Application in Biometrics
In the recent years, a number of recognition and authentication systems based on biometric measurements have been proposed. Algorithms and sensors have been developed to acquire and process many different biometric traits. Moreover, the biometric technology is being used in novel ways, with potential commercial and practical implications to our daily activities. The key objective of the book is to provide a collection of comprehensive references on some recent theoretical development as well as novel applications in biometrics. The topics covered in this book reflect well both aspects of development. They include biometric sample quality, privacy preserving and cancellable biometrics, contac...
Audio- and Video-Based Biometric Person Authentication
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Audio- and Video-Based Biometric Person Authentication, AVBPA 2005, held in Hilton Rye Town, NY, USA, in July 2005. The 66 revised oral papers and 50 revised poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers discuss all aspects of biometrics including iris, fingerprint, face, palm print, gait, gesture, speaker, and signature; theoretical and algorithmic issues are dealt with as well as systems issues. The industrial side of biometrics is evident from presentations on smart cards, wireless devices, and architectural and implementation aspects.
Advances in Biometrics
rd It is a pleasure and an honour both to organize ICB 2009, the 3 IAPR/IEEE Inter- tional Conference on Biometrics. This will be held 2–5 June in Alghero, Italy, hosted by the Computer Vision Laboratory, University of Sassari. The conference series is the premier forum for presenting research in biometrics and its allied technologies: the generation of new ideas, new approaches, new techniques and new evaluations. The ICB series originated in 2006 from joining two highly reputed conferences: Audio and Video Based Personal Authentication (AVBPA) and the International Conference on Biometric Authentication (ICBA). Previous conferences were held in Hong Kong and in Korea. This is the first t...
Knowledge-Based Intelligent Information and Engineering Systems
During recent decades we have witnessed not only the introduction of automation into the work environment but we have also seen a dramatic change in how automation has influenced the conditions of work. While some 30 years ago the addition of a computer was considered only for routine and boring tasks in support of humans, the balance has dramatically shifted to the computer being able to perform almost any task the human is willing to delegate. The very fast pace of change in processor and information technology has been the main driving force behind this development. Advances in automation and especially Artificial Intelligence (AI) have enabled the formation of a rather unique team with h...
Biometric Authentication
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Biometric Authentication, ICBA 2004, held in Hong Kong, China in July 2004. The 104 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 157 submissions; also included are summaries of 3 biometric competitions on fingerprint verification, face authentication, and signature verification. The papers are organized in topical sections on face, fingerprint, iris, signature, speech, biometric fusion and risk analysis, and other biometric issues.
