    Assessment of Sensor Ageing-Impact in Air Travelled Fingerprint Capturing Devices
    (BIOSIG 2021 - Proceedings of the 20th International Conference of the Biometrics Special Interest Group, 2021) Kauba, Christof; Kirchgasser, Simon; Jöchl, Robert; Uhl, Andreas
    Biometric recognition performance is affected by many factors, like varying acquisition conditions or ageing related effects, commonly denoted as biometric template ageing. Image sensor ageing, being part of biometric template ageing and a sub-field of image and video forensics, leads to defective pixels due to cosmic radiation, depending on the altitude. So far, image sensor ageing has only been a peripheral target in fingerprint research. We investigate the impact of image sensor ageing on various fingerprint capturing devices, including optical, capacitive and thermal ones. We established a fingerprint ageing dataset utilising 10 capturing devices which travelled on an air-plane for 127 days (to increase the number of developed defects). By evaluating the samples captured prior to their travel and afterwards using several state-of-the-art fingerprint quality metrics as well as minutiae-based fingerprint recognition systems we quantify the effect of image sensor ageing on fingerprint recognition. Furthermore, by employing a defect detection technique we quantify the number of defects developed during that period.

    PROTECT Multimodal DB: fusion evaluation on a novel multimodal biometrics dataset envisaging Border Control
    (BIOSIG 2018 - Proceedings of the 17th International Conference of the Biometrics Special Interest Group, 2018) Sequeira, Ana F.; Chen, Lulu; Ferryma, James; Galdi, Chiara; Chiesa, Valeria; Dugelay, Jean-Luc; Maik, Patryk; Gmitrowicz, Piotr; Szklarski, Lukasz; Prommegger, Bernhard; Kauba, Christof; Kirchgasser, Simon; Uhl, Andreas; Grudzien, Artur; Kowalski, Marcin
    This work presents a novel multimodal database comprising 3D face, 2D face, thermal face, visible iris, finger and hand veins, voice and anthropometrics. This dataset will constitute a valuable resource to the field with its number and variety of biometric traits. Acquired in the context of the EU PROTECT project, the dataset allows several combinations of biometric traits and envisages applications such as border control. Based upon the results of the unimodal data, a fusion scheme was applied to ascertain the recognition potential of combining these biometric traits in a multimodal approach. Due to the variability on the discriminative power of the traits, a leave the n-best out fusion technique was applied to obtain different recognition results.
