A breakthrough approach to improving biometrics performance
Constructing robust information processing systems for face and voice recognition
Supporting high-performance data fusion in multimodal systems
Algorithms, implementation techniques, and application examples
Machine learning: driving significant improvements in biometric performance
As they improve, biometric authentication systems are becoming increasingly indispensable for protecting life and property. This book introduces powerful machine learning techniques that significantly improve biometric performance in a broad spectrum of application domains.
Three leading researchers bridge the gap between research, design, and deployment, introducing key algorithms as well as practical implementation techniques. They demonstrate how to construct robust information processing systems for biometric authentication in both face and voice recognition systems, and to support data fusion in multimodal systems.
Coverage includes:
How machine learning approaches differ from conventional template matching
Theoretical pillars of machine learning for complex pattern recognition and classification
Expectation-maximization (EM) algorithms and support vector machines (SVM)
