What is Biometric System ? A Biometric system is a person identification system that recognizes a person uniquely using his/her physiological and behavioral characteristics. 3 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Introduction The term biometric comes from the Greek words bios (life) and metrikos (measure) . Biometrics – individuals’ physiological and/or behavioral characteristics. 4 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Application of Biometrics: The application of biometric can be divided into three main groups: Commercial ATM, credit card, cellular phone, distance learning, etc. Government ID card, driver’s license, social security, passport, etc. Forensic Terrorist identification, Missing children, Dead body identification etc . 5 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Applications: Traditional methods involving passwords and PIN numbers Biometrics provide highest level of security Problems: Misplaced, Get lost, Fake @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi 6
Applications: DNA means deoxyribonucleic acid @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi 7
Application of Biometric Systems 8 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
@ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi 9
Biometric System A biometric system is designed using the following four main modules. Sensor module (encapsulating a quality checking module) Feature module Matching module (encapsulating a decision making module) System database module 10 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System A sample flow chart: 11 Feature Extractor Sensor Qualify checker System Database True / False Matcher Decision Maker template The templates in the system database may be updated over time. @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System A biometric system may operate either in verification mode or identification mode . Verification mode: “ Does this biometric data belong to Mr. Babor ? ” Identification mode: “ Whose biometric data is this? ” 12 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System 13 System Database Login Interface Get Name & Snapshot Quality Checker Check Quality Feature Extractor Enrollment Template @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System 14 System Database True / False Login Interface Get Name & Snapshot One template Feature Extractor Extract Features Matcher One match Verification Claimed identity @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System 15 System Database User’s identity or “ user unidentified ” Login Interface Get Name & Snapshot N templates Feature Extractor Extract Features Matcher N match Identification @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System “Recognition” is the generic term of verification and identification. We do not make a distinction between verification and identification. 16 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Describing the verification problem: An input feature vector: X Q A claimed identity: I The biometric template corresponding to I : X I The similarity between X Q and X I : S(X Q , X I ) The predefined threshold of similarity: t True (a genuine user): ω 1 ; False (an imposter): ω 2 17 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System The identification problem… The identity enrolled in the system: I k , k=1, 2,…, N The reject case: I N+1 The biometric template corresponding to I k : X I k 18 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Errors A biometric verification system makes two types of errors: mistaking biometric measurements from two different persons to be from the same person (called false match ) mistaking two biometric measurements from the same person to be from two different persons (called false non-match ) 19 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Errors Hypothesis testing: H : input X Q does not come from the same person as the template X I H 1 : input X Q comes from the same person as the template X I 20 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Errors Decision: D : person is not who he/she claims to be D 1 : person is who he/she claims to be. 21 If S ( X Q , X I ) ≧ t , then decide D 1 , else decide D . @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Errors Such a hypothesis testing formulation contains two type of error: Type Ⅰ(α): false match ( D 1 , when H ) Type Ⅱ (β): false non-match ( D , when H 1 ) 22 FMR is the probability of Type I error FNMR is the probability of Type II error @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Errors 23 Decision Threshold ( t ) Matching Score ( s ) Probability ( p ) ∞ -∞ Imposter Distribution p ( s | H ) Genuine Distribution p ( s | H 1 ) FNMR = P ( D | H 1 ) FMR = P ( D 1 | H ) @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Errors The errors in identification mode: FMR N : the identification false match rate FNMR N : the identification false non-match rate FMR N = 1 – (1 – FMR) N ~ N × FMR FNMR N ~ FNMR 24 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Errors Some situation may lead to following formulation of FMR N and FNMR N . FNMR N = RER + (1 - RER) × FNMR RER: retrieval error rate FMR N = 1 – (1 – FMR) N×P P: the average percentage of database searched during the identification 25 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Errors 26 False Non-match Rate (FNMR) False Match Rate (FMR) Forensic Applications High-security Applications Civilian Applications @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Biometric System Errors Important specifications in a biometric system: FMR : false match rate FNMR: false non-match rate FTC: failure to capture (e.g., a faint (poorly, weak) fingerprint) FTE: failure to enroll 27 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi

Ⅷ. Multimodal Biometric Systems (19/19) A combination of uncorrelated modalities is expected to result in a better improvement in performance. A combination of uncorrelated modalities can significantly reduce the FTE. However, the cost of the system may increase and the system may cause inconvenience. 64 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Ⅸ. Social Acceptance and Privacy Issues (1/3) Social Acceptance The ease and comfort in interaction with a biometric system contribute to its acceptance. Biometric characteristics captured without the knowledge of the user is perceived as a threat to privacy by many individuals. 65 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Ⅸ. Social Acceptance and Privacy Issues (2/3) Privacy Issues Biometrics can be used as one of the most effective means for protecting individual privacy. Biometric characteristics may provide additional information about the background of an individual. 66 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
Ⅸ. Social Acceptance and Privacy Issues (3/3) Legislation is necessary to ensure that such information remains private and that its misuse is appropriately punished. Most of the commercial biometric systems available today store a template in an encrypted format. 67 @ Prof. Dr. A K M Akhtar Hossain, Dept. of CSE, University of Rajshahi
