Design of multimodal biometric systems for universal authentication and access control

Design of multimodal biometric systems for universal authentication and access control
Design of multimodal biometric systems for universal authentication and access control
Current approaches to the use of single biometrics in personal identity authentication are limited, principally because no single biometric is generally considered both sufficiently accurate and user-acceptable for universal application. Multimodal biometrics can provide a more balanced solution to the security and convenience requirements of many applications. However, such an approach can also lead to additional complexity in the design and management of authentication systems. Additionally, complex hierarchies of security levels and interacting user/provider requirements demand that a system is adaptive and flexible in configuration. In this paper we consider the integration of multi-modal biometrics using intelligent agents to address these issues of complexity management. The work reported here is part of a major project designated IAMBIC (Intelligent Agents for Multimodal Biometric Identification and Control) aimed at exploring the application of the intelligent agent metaphor to the field of biometric authentication.

Abstract

Current approaches to the use of single biometrics in personal identity authentication are limited, principally because no single biometric is generally considered both sufficiently accurate and user-acceptable for universal application. Multimodal biometrics can provide a more balanced solution to the security and convenience requirements of many applications. However, such an approach can also lead to additional complexity in the design and management of authentication systems. Additionally, complex hierarchies of security levels and interacting user/provider requirements demand that a system is adaptive and flexible in configuration. In this paper we consider the integration of multi-modal biometrics using intelligent agents to address these issues of complexity management. The work reported here is part of a major project designated IAMBIC (Intelligent Agents for Multimodal Biometric Identification and Control) aimed at exploring the application of the intelligent agent metaphor to the field of biometric authentication.
