In the current security environment, reliable biometric user authentication techniques are in great demand. This book reviews general principles of passive (physiological traits such as fingerprint, iris, face) and active (learned and trained behavior such as voice, handwriting and gait) biometric recognition techniques, and focuses particularly on the potential of handwriting as a biometric technique. The comprehensive analysis covers sensor characteristic dependency, attack...
More DescriptionIn the current security environment, reliable biometric user authentication techniques are in great demand. This book reviews general principles of passive (physiological traits such as fingerprint, iris, face) and active (learned and trained behavior such as voice, handwriting and gait) biometric recognition techniques, and focuses particularly on the potential of handwriting as a biometric technique. The comprehensive analysis covers sensor characteristic dependency, attack scenarios, and the generation of cryptographic keys from handwriting.
