The course aims at providing the necessary instruments for the analysis and design of biometric systems, both uni-modal and multi-modal systems. In the course, the principles to include the needed security ad privacy requirements in the project of the system are fully addressed. The notions learnt during the course will be brought to fruition with the realization of a functioning biometric system during the lab activity.

Biometric modalities. Physical: fingerprints, face (2D and 3D), hand geometry, palmprint, vein patterns, iris, thermography). Behavioral: signature, voice, keystroke, gait, lip motion). Cognitive (electroencephalografic signals and responses from the peripheral nervous system.
Biometric system design: biometric system architecture. Biometric system design stages: system requirements, system specification, architecture, implementation, deployment, and maintenance.
System testing: FAR, FRR, FTE, FTA, curves ROC, DET, CMC, usability, and scalability
