In this new book, Advanced Biometrics: Trends, Developments and Perspectives, the editors have collected contributions from renowned scientists and engineers to offer the most up-to-date account of this dynamic field. Biometrics play an increasingly key role in a multitude of areas, including security, health forensics and artificial intelligence. In the first part, principles of biometrics are examined in the context of applications such as cancer detection, retinal identification and identity verification through heart sound, and the impact of such factors as skin disease is also considered. In the second part, new trends, such as automatic speaker identification, thermo-face fusion, and body sensor networks are considered. In the third part, advanced technologies are explored, such as multi-modal biometric approaches to palm-print, facial features and ECG signals, and new approaches to the problem of liveness detection in fingerprint recognition are offered. In the final approach, some diverse approaches to current challenges are offered. These include tackling efficiency issues in fingerprint classification, new understanding of the challenges presented by facial aging for biometrics, and the implementation of multimodal biometrics in embedded systems. This book offers a unique range of new insights for researchers and scientists in biometrics, information systems and pattern recognition.
