The data for each subject was acquired in three different sessions, with two first sessions organized on the same day, and the third session organized approximately two weeks apart. This allowed to analyze the stability of hand temperature in both short-term and long-term horizons. No hand stabilization or positioning devices were used during acquisition, making this setup closer to real-world, unconstrained applications. This required making our method translation-, rotationand scale-invariant. Two approaches for feature selection and classification are proposed and compared: feature engineering deploying texture descriptors such as Binarized Statistical Image Features (BSIF) and Gabor wavelets, and feature learning based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) trained in different environmental conditions. For within-session scenario we achieved 0.36% and 0.00% of equal error rate (EER) in the first and the second approach, respectively. Between-session EER stands at 27.98% for the first approach and 17.17% for the second one. These results allow for estimation of a short-term stability of hand thermal information. This paper presents the first known to us database of hand thermal images and the first biometric system based solely on hand thermal maps acquired by thermal sensor in unconstrained scenario.","PeriodicalId":259849,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Workshop on Biometrics and Forensics (IWBF)","volume":"216 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115278709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These surface normal's are further subjected to the reconstruction process, which integrates the surface normal to generate depth data. Since the source of depth information is essentially the surface normal, it is prudent to examine if this source information can itself be used for 3D fingerprint identification. In addition to avoiding the errors introduced by well-known integrability problem, such an approach can also enable significantly faster identification as the 3D reconstruction is the most computationally complex operation before the template matching. This paper investigates such an approach for 3D fingerprint identification using recovered surface normal and albedo information. We use publicly available 3D fingerprint database from 240 clients for the performance evaluation. The experimental results presented in this paper are highly promising, validates our approach, and indicate promises from matching contactless 3D fingerprints without the 3D surface reconstruction.","PeriodicalId":259849,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Workshop on Biometrics and Forensics (IWBF)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129301579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

JPEG compression is one of the most harmful laundering attacks, which has been proven to deceive most CE detectors proposed so far. In this paper, we present a system that is able to detect contrast enhancement by means of adaptive histogram equalization in the presence of JPEG compression, by training a JPEG-aware SVM detector based on color SPAM features, i.e., an SVM detector trained on contrast-enhanced-then-JPEG-compressed images. Experimental results show that the detector works well only if the Quality Factor (QF) used during training matches the QF used to compress the images under test. To cope with this problem in cases where the QF cannot be extracted from the image header, we use a QF estimation step based on the idempotency properties of JPEG compression. Experimental results show good performance under a wide range of QFs.","PeriodicalId":259849,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Workshop on Biometrics and Forensics (IWBF)","volume":"221 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124370968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Considering the fact that most sparse representation methods use each testing sample separately and ignore the prior information from testing data, we seek the sparse representation of all testing samples together to capture the global structure of data. Moreover, we adopt an intra-class variance dictionary to describe various facial changes that can not be captured by the single training sample. To make use of local structure, we divide each face image into some blocks consisting of overlapped patches and assume the overlapped patches in a local block are different samples from the same class, which makes their coefficients have row-wise sparse structure. Finally, by imposing group sparsity constraint and sparsity constraint respectively on the coefficients corresponding to the training patches dictionary and variance dictionary, we obtain more discriminative sparse representation, whose coefficients can be directly utilized for classification. Experimental results on three public databases not only demonstrate effectiveness of the proposed approach but also show robustness to various facial variation.","PeriodicalId":259849,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Workshop on Biometrics and Forensics (IWBF)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125690955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper specifically investigates the effect of applying the approach to normalised texture data instead of original sample data in order to further reduce the amount of data to be processed (i.e. compressed and encrypted). Result generalisability is facilitated by the employment of four different iris feature extraction schemes and the systematic consideration of three encryption variants. Depending on the applied iris recognition scheme, protection equivalent to full encryption can be achieved when encrypting 1/60–1/12 of the data amount of a full iris sample encoded in a JPEG2000 file.","PeriodicalId":259849,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Workshop on Biometrics and Forensics (IWBF)","volume":"95 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133687846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It refers to the walking style of an individual and is considered an important biometric feature for person identification. Codebook based gait recognition algorithms have demonstrated excellent performance by achieving high recognition rates. However, such methods construct a codebook for each database or scenario. In this paper, we investigate the idea of using a generic codebook for gait recognition. The proposed codebook is built by using spatiotemporal characteristics of gait sequences from a large diverse synthetic gait database. We also propose a gait recognition algorithm based on this generic codebook. The advantages of the proposed algorithm over the existing methods include its independency from generating a codebook for each database, rather the proposed generic codebook can be used to encode any gait scenario. Moreover, the proposed algorithm is model free and does not require human body segmentation or modeling. The performance of the proposed generic codebook-based gait recognition algorithm is evaluated on two large gait databases TUM GAID and CMU MoBo, and recognition rate reveals the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.","PeriodicalId":259849,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Workshop on Biometrics and Forensics (IWBF)","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126996624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
