Fundamentals of biometrics
Langue : Anglais
Auteur : DRYGAJLO Andrzej
This book discusses and generalizes ideas which are common for biometric
modalities such as voice, face, iris, fingerprints, hand
geometry/palm/veins, dynamic signature. The author distills the vast area
of biometrics theory and application into a unified framework using
biometric modalities as particular cases. This approach gives a suitable
mix of theoretical development and practical uses of biometric techniques.
As is usually the case, the many contributors to this field generally use
disparate notations and mathematical techniques, making the material less
accessible. This book presents the variety of biometric techniques based
on feature extraction and classification in a common notational and
mathematical framework so that the concepts may be assimilated more
efficiently and the relationships among the different concepts can be
better appreciated. This approach makes the book as complete and
self-contained as possible by including derivations of virtually all the
concepts presented. At the same time, it is attempted within this
framework to make the book accessible to readers who are not interested in
all the mathematical details. Hardware implementation of biometric
techniques is not discussed, although the application examples give many
opportunities to point out common modifications to the algorithms
necessary in many applications. What the author does hope to communicate
to the reader of this book is a basic understanding of the calculation
structures and algorithms used for biometric techniques, and what
modifications to these algorithms have to be made due to practical
constraints. In this context Fundamentals of Biometrics may be used as an
advanced text for a course on the subject.
