Multimodal Biometric Systems Overview
Journal Title: Acta Technica Napocensis- Electronica-Telecomunicatii (Electronics and Telecommunications) - Year 2008, Vol 49, Issue 3
Abstract
Biometric systems allow automatic person recognition based on physical or behavioral features which belong to a certain person. Each biometric feature has its limits and no biometric system is perfect so unimodal biometric systems raise a variety of problems. To over fulfilling some of the mentioned inconvenient and limitations and to increase the level of security the multimodal biometric systems are used. This paper discusses the main features of the multimodal biometric system: architecture, level of fusion, methodology used for integrating the multiple verifiers and normalization techniques. The main applications of the multimodal biometric systems are also presented.

Study on the Effects of Precipitation On Earth-to-Satellite Links in The Ka Band
The use of higher frequency bands, above 10 GHz, for satellite communication provides a number of important benefits. It relieves congestion in the lower frequencies which are sheared with terrestrial links, in the same...
A Study of the Permutation Schemes Used in the Mobile WIMAX
With the goal of decreasing the interference at sub-carrier level, the allocation of sub-carrier frequencies in an OFDMA based system is selective. This selective allocation can be seen like a permutation of a frequency...
Pairing For Elliptic Curves With Embedding Degree 1 Defined Over Prime Order Fields
In the last years, prime order pairing-based cryptography has received much attention. The embedding degree 1 is very appealing because the computations can be performed without any extension fields, but the efficiency p...
Convergence Rate and Steady-State Error Improvement in Acoustic System Identification Using the Combination of Linear NLMS Adaptive Filters
The paper proposes the combination method applied on adaptive linear filters in acoustic system identification. The filters are based on the Normalized Least-Mean-Square algorithm and the combination is applied on two f...
Evaluation Of The Plasma Cleaned Surface Of A Heritage Wooden Painting Using IQA Methods
In this paper a new approach regarding the assessment of the visual efficiency of the plasma cleaning treatment applied in artwork restoration is discussed. The proposed method, which was tested in the case of a wooden p...
