  • Recently, human attribute recognition (HAR) attracts a lot of attention due to its wide application in video surveillance systems. Recent deep-learning-based solutions for HAR require time-consuming training processes. In this paper, we propose a post-processing technique that utilizes the historical video frames to improve prediction results without invoking re-training or modifying existing deep-learning-based classifiers. Experiment results on a large-scale benchmark dataset show the effectiveness of our proposed method.

  • In iris recognition, iris segmentation plays a very important role because its accuracy affects directly to the performance of the whole system. This paper proposes a new approach for segmenting iris that is fast, accurate and especially robust to occlusion and illumination. In this method, a circular filter is used for detecting the center of the inner circle. Then, a technique to linearize the limbus is applied and the limbus is detected using a linear filter. Experimental results show that the proposed method has promising performance for improving the iris recognition accuracy.

  • Biometrics is the electronic recognition of individuals achieved through a process of extracting, and then verifying, features which are unique to that individual. This field is rapidly evolving technology that has to be widely adopted in a broad range of applications. Many methods have been studied such as extraction of the facial features, the voice, the vein and even a person's signature. Among biometrics, a hand veins provide large, robust, stable, hidden biometric features. Hand vein patterns have been proven to be absolutely unique by Cambridge Consultants Ltd. Because of this advantage, hand vein recognition are recently developing field in the field of a security.

  • Mobile devices have recently developed to be an integral part of humans' daily lives because they meet business and personal needs. It is challenging to design a feasible and effective user authentication method for mobile devices because security issues and data privacy threats have significantly increased. Biometric approaches are more effective than traditional authentication methods. Therefore, this paper aims to analyze the existing biometric user authentication methods on mobile platforms, particularly those that use face recognition, to demonstrate the methods' feasibility and challenges. Next, this paper evaluates the methods according to seven characteristics: universality, uniqueness, permanence, collectability, performance, acceptability, and circumvention. Last, this paper suggests that solely using the method of biometric authentication is not enough to identify whether users are authentic based on biometric traits.

  • Changeable biometrics has been developed as a solution to problem of enhancing security and privacy. The idea is to transform a biometric signal or feature into a new one for the purposes of enrollment and matching. In this paper, we propose a changeable biometric system that can be applied to appearance based face recognition system. In the first step when using feature extraction, ICA(Independent Component Analysis) coefficient vectors extracted from an input face image are replaced randomly using their mean and variation. The transformed vectors by replacement are scrambled randomly and a new transformed face coefficient vector (transformed template) is generated by combination of the two transformed vectors. When this transformed template is compromised, it is replaced with new random numbers and a new scrambling rule. Because e transformed template is generated by e addition of two vectors, e original ICA coefficients could not be easily recovered from the transformed coefficients.

  • Recently increasing importance of information security, personal security is researched. Among them, biometrics research is very good at recognition and security particularly in terms of iris recognition. Recent hospital physicians and employees for access control is emphasized. But most of them, easy-employee card access control systems are used. It has difficulties of iris recognition on the issue of accurate iris recognition algorithm to eliminate noise and inaccuracy of pretreatment methods for recognition from existing research. Therefore, this paper complements existing encryption methods to the disadvantages of biometric iris recognition using high-access records in the hospital management system is applied. In addition to conventional pretreatment process to increase recognition eyebrows when mask line component added to the extraction mask, the correct preparation method, and accordingly proposed to improve the recognition of records management systems offer access to the hospital.

  • With the increasing popularity of mobile devices, it has become necessary to protect private information and content in these devices. Face recognition has been favored over conventional passwords or security keys, because it can be easily implemented using a built-in camera, while providing user convenience. However, because mobile devices can be used both indoors and outdoors, there can be many illumination changes, which can reduce the accuracy of face recognition. Therefore, we propose a new face recognition method on a mobile device robust to illumination variations. This research makes the following four original contributions. First, we compared the performance of face recognition with illumination variations on mobile devices for several illumination normalization procedures suitable for mobile devices with low processing power. These include the Retinex filter, histogram equalization and histogram stretching. Second, we compared the performance for global and local methods of face recognition such as PCA (Principal Component Analysis), LNMF (Local Non-negative Matrix Factorization) and LBP (Local Binary Pattern) using an integer-based kernel suitable for mobile devices having low processing power. Third, the characteristics of each method according to the illumination va iations are analyzed. Fourth, we use two matching scores for several methods of illumination normalization, Retinex and histogram stretching, which show the best and $2^{nd}$ best performances, respectively. These are used as the inputs of an SVM (Support Vector Machine) classifier, which can increase the accuracy of face recognition. Experimental results with two databases (data collected by a mobile device and the AR database) showed that the accuracy of face recognition achieved by the proposed method was superior to that of other methods.

  • This paper presents a fingerprint image registration method. In the fingerprint system, the insufficiency of mutual information between a template and a query fingerprint is one of major factors to deteriorate recognition performance. To overcome this problem, we need to register multiple impressions and integrate their information. Our method matches the ridges from multiple impressions recursively and then registers the impressions to minimize the registration error calculated from the Distance map. Our method use regularized TPS model as the transformation model to compensate for the plastic deformation. We compare our method with 3 prior arts (ICP, Distance Map, Ross's method). Our registration error and its' variance is the smallest and also the average registration error is below 3 pixels.
