Interpreting Fingerprint Authentication Performance: Technical White Paper

Overview The fingerprint-imaging segment of the biometrics industry is in its embryonic state; a myriad of technologies and concepts have fostered slow but steady growth. As the number of applications and level of acceptance grow, biometric developers are faced with the task of evaluating and contrasting the various solutions on the market. To date, developers of fingerprint authentication products, such as sensors and algorithms, have developed tests tailored to their particular devices and software. Since the relative performance of the fingerprint authentication systems is crucial in the evaluation process, it is imperative that the results be analyzed with care. A comprehensive discussion of performance results is the subject of this white paper.
