Fuzzy Commitment for Function Based Signature Template Protection
TLDR
Experimental results show that the proposed protected on-line signature recognition system guarantees recognition rates comparable with those of unprotected approaches, and outperforms already proposed protection schemes for signature biometrics.Abstract:
In this paper we propose a biometric cryptosystem able to provide security and renewability to a function based on- line signature representation. A novel reliable signature traits selection procedure, along with a signature binarization algorithm, are introduced. Experimental results, evaluated on the public MCYT signature database, show that the proposed protected on-line signature recognition system guarantees recognition rates comparable with those of unprotected approaches, and outperforms already proposed protection schemes for signature biometrics.read more
