  2. 1. Unique Biometric IDs: Governmentality and Appropriation in a Digital India

    Author : Elida K. U. Jacobsen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; India; biometric identification; Aadhaar; Unique ID; governmentality; appropriation; post-colonial; biopower; risk; narrative method; subjectivity;

    Abstract : On a global scale, the usage of a variety of digital ID and surveillance technologies in both civic and security governance is increasingly taking place, leading to standardised forms and practices. India is implementing the largest biometric scheme in history. READ MORE

  4. 2. Enriching Automated Travel Diaries Using Biometric Information

    Author : Robin C. O. Palmberg; Yusak O. Susilo; Gyözö Gidofalvi; Clas Rydergren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Abstract : The methods for collecting travel data about travellers today incorporate either fully manual or semi-automatic elements, which makes the methods susceptible to errors. The travellers might respond subjectively rather than objectively or even wholly incorrect, albeit with or without purpose. READ MORE

  5. 3. Information-theoretic Privacy and Secrecy in Biometric Identification and Authentication

    Author : Linghui Zhou; Tobias J. Oechtering; Mikael Skoglund; Hideki Yagi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Information theory; identification; authentication; privacy; secrecy; Informationsteori; identifiering; autentisering; integritet; sekretess; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Nowadays, biometrics are more and more deployed to reinforce traditional authentication or identification that uses keys, passwords, etc. Biometric identification and authentication have been studied from various information-theoretic perspectives, where privacy and secrecy are two important aspects.

  6. 4. Audio-video synthesis methods for improving performance of biometric systems

    Author : Dereje Teferi Lemma; Josef Bigun; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biometrics; Audio-Video synthesis; Image segmentation; XM2VTS; DXM2VTS; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : System security is important for any automation. It is even more so in the case of biometric systems due to the sensitive nature of the data it uses for enrollment and authentication - the subjects physical or biological trait. READ MORE

  7. 5. Lip-motion and speech biometrics in person recognition

    Author : Maycel Isaac Faraj; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Audio-visual recognition; biometrics; Biometric recognition; Speaker verification; Speaker authentication; Person identification; Lip movements; Motion; Structure tensor; Orientation; Optical flow; Hidden Markov Model; Gaussian Markov Model; Lip-motion; Image analysis; Bildanalys;

    Abstract : Biometric identification techniques are frequently used to improve security, e.g. in financial transactions, computer networks and secure critical locations. The purpose of biometric authentication systems is to verify an individual by her biological characteristics including those generating characterisitic behaviour. READ MORE
