The automated methodology to uniquely identify humans using their physiological or behavioral attributes.
What information is available concerning DoD standards and/or methods for validating and implementing data derived from machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms used in biometric identification applications?
What if the clothes you wear could care for your health? MIT researchers have developed an autonomous programmable computer in the form of an elastic fiber, which could monitor health conditions and physical activity, alerting…
At the start of a new year, many people think about making positive changes in their lives, such as improving physical fitness or learning a particular skill. Astronauts on the International Space Station work all…
The manufacturing technique known as 3D printing, now being used everywhere, from aircraft manufacturers to public libraries, has never been more affordable or accessible. Biomedical engineering has particularly benefited from 3D printing, as prosthetic devices…
Fingerprints are the human barcode. Cameras on smartphones are advanced enough to collect fingerprints without physical contact, creating new opportunities for defense forces. Now, every operator can possess a fingerprint sensor using phones they already…
Biometrics can provide strong validation of persona under ideal circumstances and conditions. During Covid-19, a domestic mask mandate rendered biometric techniques like facial recognition somewhat challenged. As a result, additional complementary methods are required to…
Facial recognition sees daily press coverage for its capabilities, limitations, and policy implications. It has undergone a revolution since 2012, as the developer community has shifted toward the use of various convolutional neural network architectures….
The IEEE conference series on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition is an international forum for research in image and video-based face, gesture, and body movement recognition. It is cosponsored by the IEEE Biometrics Council and…
