Title
Increase the security of multibiometric systems by incorporating a spoofing detection algorithm in the fusion mechanism
Abstract
The use of multimodal biometric systems has been encouraged by the threat of spoofing, where an impostor fakes a biometric trait. The reason lies on the assumption that, an impostor must fake all the fused modalities to be accepted. Recent studies showed that there is a vulnerability of the existing fusion schemes in presence of attacks where only a subset of the fused modalities is spoofed. In this paper, we demonstrated that, by incorporating a liveness detection algorithm in the fusion scheme, the multimodal system results robust in presence of spoof attacks involving only a subset of the fused modalities. The experiments were carried out by analyzing different fusion rules on the Biosecure multimodal database.
