Annotated Bibliography : Biometric Gait Recognition

Biometrics technology aims at utilizing major and distinctive characteristics such as behavioral or biological, for the sake of positively indentifying people. With the help of a combination of hardware and specific identifying sets of rules, a basic human attribute, automated biometric recognition mimics to distinguish and categorize other people as individual and unique. But the challenges surrounding biometrics are great as well.

Identification is the means through which a user is associated with and gains access to an account. The most common form of identification in use with computer systems is through the use of a username. Other systems use Common Access Cards (CAC), smart cards, or tokens combined with a pin code that allow for access to a system. More complex, high security systems might use some form of biometric to associate a user with an account and permission set. Biometrics include: fingerprint, iris scan, facial scan etc.. something that is unique to the particular person that cannot be easily altered. Identification allows for the tracking

The authentication process is a necessity for safeguarding systems against various forms of security threats, such as password-cracking tools, brute-force or wordbook attacks, abuse of system access rights, impersonation of attested users, and last but not least reply attacks just to name a

The process of confirming a user's identity, usually by requiring the user to supply some sort of token, such as a password, certificate, or ___________ .

Individual users play an important role in any form of institution or organization but concerns are raised about the security. The network administrators clearly lay down a set of rules, regulations and protocols that an individual user has to agree accordingly upon which part of the resources and what class of service that the user can obtain.

Authentication is a process to identify a client that attempts to access a secure domain. TMG provides authentication support for the backend servers.

30. What is the process of confirming a user’s identity by using a known value, such as a password, pin number on a smart card, or user’s fingerprint or handprint in the case of biometric authentication? Authentication

Biometrics is a method of identifying an individual based on characteristics that they possess, typically physiological features such as a fingerprint, hand, iris, retina, face, voice, and even DNA. Some methods of biometrics security even use multiple physiological features or multimodal biometrics to provide superior security than a single form of biometrics can provide. Why are biometrics important in the field of information security? Biometrics provide a remarkable amount of security for information because biometrics are unique to each person, and thus cannot be lost, copied, or shared with another individual. This security allows for biometrics to provide a means to reliability authenticate personnel. The importance of biometrics can be further divided into the history of biometrics and why it was devised, past implementations of biometrics, current implementations of biometrics, and future implementations of biometrics.

Identification processes are significantly more complex and error prone than verification processes. Biometrics technologies are indicators of authentication assurance with results based on a predetermined threshold with measurable False Accept Rates and False Reject Rates.

With the rapid increase in the number of attempted breaches and resulting damages, there is an increased need for user authentication, especially with numerous unknown mobile devices with which consumers are using to access to IT resources.

The government has control over people in the form of surveillance which then exploits their privacy. The gait recognition system from the novel capture the privacy of individual on a visual level. This system recognizes your walking stance and corresponds your stance to one on the database. When running from the vampire games Masha said “put these pebbles in your shoes before you put

We live in a world today, in which technology moves at a very rapid pace. Many of these technological advances can be used to make our everyday lives easier and safer. One of these new technologies is Biometrics. Biometrics is the process of measuring a person’s physical properties. This would include measuring things like fingerprints, retinas, odor, vein structure on the back of the hand and many other things. Biometrics is a very important topic because it would create better security precautions for certain places that need to be secure. Biometrics will make our society safer by only allowing authorized people out of secure facilities and by keeping the unauthorized people out. Throughout the rest of this

Gait recognition approaches employ both static (i.e head , neck and shoulder) and dynamic (i.e foot, legs)features for recognition. Gait can be used in situations where other biometrics do not have sufficient resolution for recognition. Gait is a spatial temporal phenomenon that typifies the motion characteristics of an individual[17]. Analyzing the gait, walking style of an individual. The change in gait due to the person’s mood and injury are few of the major concerns for this biometric. gait biometrics affected by the individuals mood . In[18] a new method for gait recognition, firstly binary silhouette of a walking person is detected from each frame. Secondly, feature from each frame is extracted using image processing operation. Here center

Biometrics are automated methods of recognizing a person based on a physical or behavioral characteristic (2001). Essentially, biometric security technologies are used to accurately identify individuals on a unique trait. The most common biometric security techniques used currently are: signature

The technology is many years away from development. Blood pulses on a finger can be measured by new biometric systems. This technology is currently under development. Nail bed identification is based on identifying distinct spatial arrangement beneath the fingernail. Gait recognition is another technology which is under development. This recognizes individuals by their distinctive walk and captures a sequence of images to derive and analyze motion characteristics. The technology is currently under development and its complete potential and limitations can be fully assessed. Many biometric identification systems are being developed and tested (Woodward, 2005).
