Abstract

With the title “Advanced Pattern Recognition Technologies with Applications to Biometrics” this book mainly focuses on two kinds of advanced biometric recognition technologies, biometric discrimination techniques and multi-biometrics. Biometric discrimination techniques are presented in Parts I and II, while multi-biometrics is described in Part III. While the methods and algorithms described in Parts I and II are very suitable for biometrics as they take into account characteristics of biometric applications such as high dimensionality and small sample size, Part III mainly introduces three kinds of biometric fusion techniques that respectively fuse biometric information at the feature level, matching score level and decision level as well as their applications cases. This chapter summarizes the book from a holistic viewpoint. Section 16.1 summarizes the contents of the book and indicates the relationship between different chapters in each part. Section 16.2 reveals that how the methods and algorithms described in different parts can be applied to different data forms of biometric traits. Section 16.3 provides comments on the development of multi-biometrics.
