This volume constitutes the post-conference proceedings of the First European Workshop on Biometrics and Identity Management, BIOID 2008, held in Roskilde, Denmark, during May 7-9, 2008. The 23 regular papers presented were carefully selected from numerous submissions. They cover the following topics: biometric data quality; biometrical templates - face recognition; biometrical templates -- other modalities; biometric attacks and countermeasures; biometric interfaces, and standards and privacy. These papers are presented together with 4 position papers by invited speakers on biometrics and identity management.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Biometrics, ICB 2007, held in Seoul, Korea, August 2007. Biometric criteria covered by the papers are assigned to face, fingerprint, iris, speech and signature, biometric fusion and performance evaluation, gait, keystrokes, and others. In addition, the volume also announces the results of the Face Authentication Competition, FAC 2006.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the COST 2101 International Workshop, BIOID 2011, held in Brandenburg (Havel), Germany, in March 2011. The 25 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and are completed by an introduction on COST. The papers are organized in topical main sections on theory and systems, handwriting authentication, speaker authentication, face recognition, multibiometric authentication, and on biometrics and forensics.
This book constitutes the research papers presented at the Joint 2101 & 2102 International Conference on Biometric ID Management and Multimodal Communication. BioID_MultiComm'09 is a joint International Conference organized cooperatively by COST Actions 2101 & 2102. COST 2101 Action is focused on "Biometrics for Identity Documents and Smart Cards (BIDS)", while COST 2102 Action is entitled "Cross-Modal Analysis of Verbal and Non-verbal Communication". The aim of COST 2101 is to investigate novel technologies for unsupervised multimodal biometric authentication systems using a new generation of biometrics-enabled identity documents and smart cards. COST 2102 is devoted to develop an advanced acoustical, perceptual and psychological analysis of verbal and non-verbal communication signals originating in spontaneous face-to-face interaction, in order to identify algorithms and automatic procedures capable of recognizing human emotional states.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Computational Forensics, IWCF 2010, held in Tokyo, Japan in November 2010. The 16 revised full papers presented together with two invited keynote papers were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and revision. The papers cover a wide range of current topics in computational forensics including authentication, biometrics, document analysis, multimedia, forensic tool evaluation, character recognition, and forensic verification.
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 5th and 6th International Workshops on Computational Forensics, IWCF 2012 and IWCF 2014, held in Tsukuba, Japan, in November 2010 and August 2014. The 16 revised full papers and 1 short paper were carefully selected from 34 submissions during a thorough review process. The papers are divided into three broad areas namely biometrics; document image inspection; and applications.
The scope of Artificial Intelligence's (AI) hold on modern life is only just beginning to be fully understood. Academics, professionals, policymakers, and legislators are analysing the effects of AI in the legal realm, notably in human rights work. Artificial Intelligence technologies and modern human rights have lived parallel lives for the last sixty years, and they continue to evolve with one another as both fields take shape. Human Rights and Artificial Intelligence explores the effects of AI on both the concept of human rights and on specific topics, including civil and political rights, privacy, non-discrimination, fair procedure, and asylum. Second- and third-generation human rights are also addressed. By mapping this relationship, the book clarifies the benefits and risks for human rights as new AI applications are designed and deployed. Its granular perspective makes Human Rights and Artificial Intelligence a seminal text on the legal ramifications of machine learning. This expansive volume will be useful to academics and professionals navigating the complex relationship between AI and human rights.
This title provides a comprehensive overview of European migration law. More than three dozen directives and regulations are discussed throughout this volume, together with numerous court judgments, international treaties, reform proposals, and factual developments. This careful inspection of EU legislation and cases is accompanied by analyses of domestic and international developments, as well as contextual factors influencing the real world of migratory movements. Across eighteen chapters, Daniel Thym discusses core features of visas and border controls, asylum and legal migration, integration and return, association agreements, and international cooperation. The work consists of two parts...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th Iberoamerican Congress on Pattern Recognition, CIARP 2012, held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in September 2012. The 109 papers presented, among them two tutorials and four keynotes, were carefully reviewed and selected from various submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on face and iris: detection and recognition; clustering; fuzzy methods; human actions and gestures; graphs; image processing and analysis; shape and texture; learning, mining and neural networks; medical images; robotics, stereo vision and real time; remote sensing; signal processing; speech and handwriting analysis; statistical pattern recognition; theoretical pattern recognition; and video analysis.
Presenting the first definitive study of the subject, this Handbook of Biometric Anti-Spoofing reviews the state of the art in covert attacks against biometric systems and in deriving countermeasures to these attacks. Topics and features: provides a detailed introduction to the field of biometric anti-spoofing and a thorough review of the associated literature; examines spoofing attacks against five biometric modalities, namely, fingerprints, face, iris, speaker and gait; discusses anti-spoofing measures for multi-model biometric systems; reviews evaluation methodologies, international standards and legal and ethical issues; describes current challenges and suggests directions for future research; presents the latest work from a global selection of experts in the field, including members of the TABULA RASA project.
