Machine Learning and Biometrics

This comprehensive guide provides a detailed overview of modern biometrics, which allows a person to be identified and authenticated based on recognizable, unique, and verifiable data. Biometrics technologies include detection of dormant fingerprints, iris, gait, or facial and voice recognition. Today, biometrics powers cutting-edge security algorithms. Biometrics is used for access into banks, airports or personal smartphones, which means that your money and personal information can be stored safely. Each chapter starts with a comprehensive review of the biometrics technology and its algorithmic description, describes how it works, and outlines all of the applicable and modern use cases of that technology. This book will be an invaluable companion guide to students wishing to become system designers, micro-engineers, security algorithms creators, security experts, and electronic security system manufacturers working on controls or microchips.
