State-of-the-art in multimodal biometric databases

Prof. Javier Ortega-Garcia
Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, Spain

There is an increasing need for biometric databases in order to conduct biometric evaluation campaigns. As far as technology performance increases, more and more data are needed so that error figures are bounded within given confidence intervals. Together with this, the growth of multibiometric scenarios has oriented database acquisition to incorporate variety of modalities and sensors, increasing the number of participants and the number of sessions. We will focus on all these issues, in order to guide database design. Together with this, also legal and privacy issues will be discussed.
