BIOMETRIC IDENTIFICATION AND VERIFICATION

Номер: US20140037151A1
Автор: BENINI David
Принадлежит: AWARE, INC.

In real biometric systems, false match rates and false non-match rates of 0% do not exist. There is always some probability that a purported match is false, and that a genuine match is not identified. The performance of biometric systems is often expressed in part in terms of their false match rate and false non-match rate, with the equal error rate being when the two are equal. There is a tradeoff between the FMR and FNMR in biometric systems which can be adjusted by changing a matching threshold. This matching threshold can be automatically, dynamically and/or user adjusted so that a biometric system of interest can achieve a desired FMR and FNMR. 160.-. (canceled)61. A method to set a threshold in a biometric system by using imposter match score data to determine a match threshold score that results in a desired false match rate comprising:creating a database of match scores between all unique impostor biometric sample pairs;creating, using a processor, a cumulative histogram data table that records, for each possible match score outcome, a number of match scores observed greater than the threshold divided by the total number of samples;using the cumulative histogram data table to determine the threshold; andselecting the desired false match rate and determining the threshold that will result in the desired false match rate.62.

The display overlays a virtual file document onto a tangible object. The physical identification verification engine receives biometric data for a witness and confirms the witness's identity. The display displays a gesture motion from the signor. The gesture capture engine captures a gesture motion from the witness. The gesture capture engine generates a witness digital signature based on the captured gesture motion from the witness. The gesture capture engine generates a witness transfer token, the witness transfer token comprising the witness digital signature based on the captured gesture from the witness and the witness identity confirmation token.

BIOMETRIC IMAGE OPTIMIZATION USING LIGHT FIELDS

Номер: US20170024603A1
Автор: Misslin Anthony Ray
Принадлежит:

The application of light field imaging in the capture of biometric images enables image processing to use continuous focus adjustment of a single image to construct an image of a biometric feature that is in focus across an expanded depth of field. Because a single image is the source of all information, the final image is formed without requiring combination of multiple images that may have physically moved between capture of the images. Light field imaging can be accomplished through multiple methods including plenoptic cameras or focus stacking cameras. The use of near infrared wavelengths in images captured using light fields optimizes the deployment of biometric systems by eliminating intense visible light currently implemented to capture some biometrics. The use of near infrared wavelengths for light field imaging enhances iris capture as the iris display more useful characterization under near infrared illumination. 1. A method of optimizing a single image of a biometric parameter , comprising:capturing an image of the biometric parameter having at least one of image portions that are in different focal planes and image portions that are viewable from different viewing angles;forming a single image includes forming multiple views of the biometric parameter wherein each one of the multiple views comprises a different combination of at least one of a focal plane and a viewing angle; andprocessing the multiple views to create a single improved image of the biometric parameter with the image portions all in focus and including information from multiple viewing angles.2.

A compact and inexpensive method and apparatus for illuminating and acquiring a digital image of a biometric feature such as a fingerprint, palm print, footprint, or some subset or multiple of such features. A source of illumination ( 11 ) is introduced into an exposed edge of a transparent optical window ( 13 ) that is essentially smooth and generally flat with spaced apart surfaces. The illumination propagates between the surfaces of a flat or slightly curved transparent window ( 13 ) via total internal reflection ( 15 ) to obliquely illuminate a biometric feature ( 12 ) when in contact with the window ( 13 ). A digital camera ( 17 ) views the obliquely illuminated biometric feature ( 12 ) to record an image of it which can then be compared with registered images for matching and control purposes.

BIOMETRIC IDENTIFICATION AND VERIFICATION

Номер: US20150036895A1
Автор: BENINI David Benini
Принадлежит:

In real biometric systems, false match rates and false non-match rates of 0% do not exist. There is always some probability that a purported match is false, and that a genuine match is not identified. The performance of biometric systems is often expressed in part in terms of their false match rate and false non-match rate, with the equal error rate being when the two are equal. There is a tradeoff between the FMR and FNMR in biometric systems which can be adjusted by changing a matching threshold. This matching threshold can be automatically, dynamically and/or user adjusted so that a biometric system of interest can achieve a desired FMR and FNMR. 1. A method for setting a threshold in a biometric system using imposter match score data to derive a match threshold score that results in a desired false match rate and false non-match rate comprising:creating a database of match scores between all unique impostor biometric sample pairs;creating a cumulative histogram data table recording for each possible match score outcome a number of match scores observed greater than that value divided by the total number of samples; andselecting a desired false match rate and applying the threshold that will result in the desired false match rate.260-.
