Opis

As biometric-based identification and identity authentication becomes increasingly widespread in their deployment, it becomes important to consider issues relating to reliability, usability and inclusion. Factors which are particularly important in this context are the relationship between the nature of the measurements extracted from a particular biometric modality, the age of the sample donor, and the effect which age has on physiological and behavioral characteristics invoked in a biometric transaction. Topics include: * review of ageing and biometrics* social factors in ageing and their relevance to biometrics* using age to enhance performance in biometrics* understanding ageing processes in key biometric modalities* modality-related approaches to management of age factors* industrial perspective on biometric age factors* age prediction from biometrics data* databases and analytical implications* usability and ageing* ageing effects and implications for biometric cryptosystems * future challenges for systems delivery. "Age Factors in Biometric Processing" provides an overview of this topic for the rapidly expanding community of stakeholders in biometrics-based identification solutions in academia, industry and government.
