The MINEX II trial was conducted to evaluate the accuracy and speed of MATCH-ON-CARD verification algorithms. These run on ISO/IEC 7816 smartcards. They compare conformant reference and verification instances of the ISO/IEC 19794-2 COMPACT CARD fingerprint minutia standard. The test therefore represents an assessment of the core viability of the de facto leading compact biometric data element on personal identity credentials based on the the industry standard smart card. The results are relevant to users seeking to use minutia templates as an additional factor for authentication. MINEX II did...

The MINEX II trials have been conducted to evaluate the accuracy and speed of MATCH-ON-CARD verification algorithms. These run on ISO/IEC 7816 smartcards. They compare reference and verification data conformant to the ISO/IEC 19794-2 COMPACT CARD fingerprint minutia standard. The test is an assessment of the core viability of matching fingerprints (i.e. the de facto leading compact biometric data element) on personal identity credentials based on the industry-standard smart cards. The results are relevant to users of minutia templates as additional authentication factor.
