Book Specification for Interoperability Testing of Contactless Fingerprint Acquisition Devices

Download or read book Specification for Interoperability Testing of Contactless Fingerprint Acquisition Devices written by John Libert and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidance specifies a protocol and associated metrics for the evaluation of contactless fingerprint acquisition device, and their interoperability with legacy devices. This protocol enables contactless fingerprint developers seeking certification of their devices to perform an integral role in the collection of measurements by which their device will be evaluated by the certifying authority or other stakeholders. The NIST Fingerprint Registration and Comparison Tool (NFRaCT) enables interested parties seeking testing for certification to collect fingerprint images and performance measurements using the NFRaCT and provide those measurements to the certifying authority for analysis and evaluation without requiring the exchange of any underlying fingerprint images. The protocol provides flexibility in that device performance can be evaluated and validated using live fingerprint impressions or three-dimensional (3D) fingerprint target artifacts.

Book Guidance for Evaluating Contactless Fingerprint Acquisition Devices

Download or read book Guidance for Evaluating Contactless Fingerprint Acquisition Devices written by John Libert and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document details efforts undertaken by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to develop measurements and a protocol for the evaluation of contactless (touchless) fingerprint acquisition devices. Contactless fingerprint capture differs fundamentally from legacy contact fingerprinting methods, and poses novel problems for image quality evaluation and challenges relative to interoperability with contact fingerprints that populate large repositories maintained by law enforcement and Federal Government organizations. For contact acquisition, the fingerprint impression is a first-order transfer of the 3D friction ridge structure to the recording surface. The third dimension of the curved finger surface is effectively removed by pressure against the planar recording surface. The 3D topography of the ridges and furrows are transferred with low ambiguity to the recording surface as dark ridges (points of contact) and lighter furrows (lesser or no contact). Contactless images by comparison, in most cases, are third-order renderings of an original photographic representation, itself a 2D optical projection of the 3D structure of the finger. The appearance of this projection is subject to variability as low- or moderately-controlled lighting interacts with the 3D geometry of the finger, the friction ridge structure superimposed on the finger, and the geometry of the presentation of the finger to the contactless device. The photograph must then be subjected to various image processing methods to infer the ridge structure for rendering as a fingerprint similar in appearance to legacy contact captures. The rendering process is the source of numerous errors relative to contact captures. Despite problems with image quality, this early study finds contactless fingerprints of the devices examined to be usable in some applications, with qualifications, including one- to-many matching against small databases.

Book Interoperability Assessment 2019

Download or read book Interoperability Assessment 2019 written by John Libert and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes computational comparison measurements as well as match error analysis applied to fingerprint images collected by researchers of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in May of 2019. Fingerprint images from 200 Federal Employees were collected using both contact and contactless acquisition devices, including both stationary devices and mobile smartphone devices. Match scores from two different matchers were used to calculate False Negative Identification Rate (FNIR) and False Positive Identification Rate (FPIR) at two operational thresholds appropriate to each of the matchers. These values are displayed in graphical form across eight devices for each of ten finger combinations. Overall error performance is compared via Area Under Curve across devices for each of ten finger combinations as well as across finger combinations separately for each of the eight devices. Contact-to-contact interoperability remains superior to contactless-to-contact, but multiple finger combinations improve match performance of contactless devices.

Book Biometric Authentication

Download or read book Biometric Authentication written by Davide Maltoni and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-09-21 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biometric authentication is increasingly gaining popularity in a large spectrum ofapplications,rangingfromgovernmentprograms(e. g. ,nationalIDcards,visas for international travel,and the ?ght against terrorism) to personal applications such as logical and physical access control. Although a number of e?ective - lutions are currently available, new approaches and techniques are necessary to overcomesomeofthelimitationsofcurrentsystemsandtoopenupnewfrontiers in biometric research and development. The 30 papers presented at Biometric Authentication Workshop 2004 (BioAW 2004) provided a snapshot of current research in biometrics, and identify some new trends. This volume is composed of?vesections:facerecognition,?ngerprintrecognition,templateprotectionand security, other biometrics, and fusion and multimodal biometrics. For classical biometrics like ?ngerprint and face recognition, most of the papers in Sect. 1 and 2 address robustness issues in order to make the biometric systems work in suboptimal conditions: examples include face detection and recognition - der uncontrolled lighting and pose variations, and ?ngerprint matching in the case of severe skin distortion. Benchmarking and interoperability of sensors and liveness detection are also topics of primary interest for ?ngerprint-based s- tems. Biometrics alone is not the solution for complex security problems. Some of the papers in Sect. 3 focus on designing secure systems; this requires dealing with safe template storage, checking data integrity, and implementing solutions in a privacy-preserving fashion. The match-on-tokens approach, provided that current accuracy and cost limitations can be satisfactorily solved by using new algorithms and hardware, is certainly a promising alternative. The use of new biometric indicators like eye movement, 3D ?nger shape, and soft traits (e. g.

Book Cognitive Hyperconnected Digital Transformation

Download or read book Cognitive Hyperconnected Digital Transformation written by Ovidiu Vermesan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive Hyperconnected Digital Transformation provides an overview of the current Internet of Things (IoT) landscape, ranging from research, innovation and development priorities to enabling technologies in a global context. It is intended as a standalone book in a series that covers the Internet of Things activities of the IERC-Internet of Things European Research Cluster, including both research and technological innovation, validation and deployment. The book builds on the ideas put forward by the European Research Cluster, the IoT European Platform Initiative (IoT-EPI) and the IoT European Large-Scale Pilots Programme, presenting global views and state-of-the-art results regarding the challenges facing IoT research, innovation, development and deployment in the next years. Hyperconnected environments integrating industrial/business/consumer IoT technologies and applications require new IoT open systems architectures integrated with network architecture (a knowledge-centric network for IoT), IoT system design and open, horizontal and interoperable platforms managing things that are digital, automated and connected and that function in real-time with remote access and control based on Internet-enabled tools. The IoT is bridging the physical world with the virtual world by combining augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) to support the physical-digital integrations in the Internet of mobile things based on sensors/actuators, communication, analytics technologies, cyber-physical systems, software, cognitive systems and IoT platforms with multiple functionalities. These IoT systems have the potential to understand, learn, predict, adapt and operate autonomously. They can change future behaviour, while the combination of extensive parallel processing power, advanced algorithms and data sets feed the cognitive algorithms that allow the IoT systems to develop new services and propose new solutions. IoT technologies are moving into the industrial space and enhancing traditional industrial platforms with solutions that break free of device-, operating system- and protocol-dependency. Secure edge computing solutions replace local networks, web services replace software, and devices with networked programmable logic controllers (NPLCs) based on Internet protocols replace devices that use proprietary protocols. Information captured by edge devices on the factory floor is secure and accessible from any location in real time, opening the communication gateway both vertically (connecting machines across the factory and enabling the instant availability of data to stakeholders within operational silos) and horizontally (with one framework for the entire supply chain, across departments, business units, global factory locations and other markets). End-to-end security and privacy solutions in IoT space require agile, context-aware and scalable components with mechanisms that are both fluid and adaptive. The convergence of IT (information technology) and OT (operational technology) makes security and privacy by default a new important element where security is addressed at the architecture level, across applications and domains, using multi-layered distributed security measures. Blockchain is transforming industry operating models by adding trust to untrusted environments, providing distributed security mechanisms and transparent access to the information in the chain. Digital technology platforms are evolving, with IoT platforms integrating complex information systems, customer experience, analytics and intelligence to enable new capabilities and business models for digital business.
