    Next-generation vehicles will undoubtedly feature biometric person recognition as part of an effort to improve the driving experience. Today's technology prevents such systems from operating satisfactorily under adverse conditions. A proposed framework for achieving person recognition successfully combines different biometric modalities, borne out in two case studies

    Unimodal and multimodal biometric sensing systems : a review

    Biometric systems are used for the verification and identification of individuals using their physiological or behavioral features. These features can be categorized into unimodal and multimodal systems, in which the former have several deficiencies that reduce the accuracy of the system, such as noisy data, inter-class similarity, intra-class variation, spoofing, and non-universality. However, multimodal biometric sensing and processing systems, which make use of the detection and processing of two or more behavioral or physiological traits, have proved to improve the success rate of identification and verification significantly. This paper provides a detailed survey of the various unimodal and multimodal biometric sensing types providing their strengths and weaknesses. It discusses the stages involved in the biometric system recognition process and further discusses multimodal systems in terms of their architecture, mode of operation, and algorithms used to develop the systems. It also touches on levels and methods of fusion involved in biometric systems and gives researchers in this area a better understanding of multimodal biometric sensing and processing systems and research trends in this area. It furthermore gives room for research on how to find solutions to issues on various unimodal biometric systems.http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/RecentIssue.jsp?punumber=6287639am2017Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineerin

    The DRIVE-SAFE project: signal processing and advanced information technologies for improving driving prudence and accidents

    In this paper, we will talk about the Drivesafe project whose aim is creating conditions for prudent driving on highways and roadways with the purposes of reducing accidents caused by driver behavior. To achieve these primary goals, critical data is being collected from multimodal sensors (such as cameras, microphones, and other sensors) to build a unique databank on driver behavior. We are developing system and technologies for analyzing the data and automatically determining potentially dangerous situations (such as driver fatigue, distraction, etc.). Based on the findings from these studies, we will propose systems for warning the drivers and taking other precautionary measures to avoid accidents once a dangerous situation is detected. In order to address these issues a national consortium has been formed including Automotive Research Center (OTAM), Koç University, Istanbul Technical University, Sabancı University, Ford A.S., Renault A.S., and Fiat A.

    A Survey of Biometric Recognition Systems in E-Business Transactions

    The global expansion of e-business applications has introduced novel challenges, with an escalating number of security issues linked to online transactions, such as phishing attacks and identity theft. E-business involves conducting buying and selling activities online, facilitated by the Internet. The application of biometrics has been proposed as a solution to mitigate security concerns in e- business transactions. Biometric recognition involves the use of automated techniques to validate an individual's identity based on both physiological and behavioural characteristics. This research focuses specifically on implementing a multimodal biometric recognition system that incorporates face and fingerprint data to enhance the security of e-business transactions. In contrast to unimodal systems relying on a single biometric modality, this approach addresses limitations such as noise, universality, and variations in both interclass and intraclass scenarios. The study emphasizes the advantages of multimodal biometric systems while shedding light on vulnerabilities in biometrics within the e- business context. This in-depth analysis serves as a valuable resource for those exploring the intersection of e-business and biometrics, providing insights into the strengths, challenges, and best practices for stakeholders in this domain. Finally, the paper concludes with a summary and outlines potential avenues for future research

    In the era of Information Technology, openness of the information is a major concern. As the confidentiality and integrity of the information is critically important, it has to be secured from unauthorized access. Security refers to prohibit some unauthorized persons from some important data or from some precious assets. So we need accurateness on automatic personal identification in various applications such as ATM, driving license, passports, citizen's card, cellular telephones, voter's ID card etc. Unimodal system carries some problems such as Noise in sensed data, Intra-class variations, Inter-class similarities, Non-universality and Spoof attacks. The accuracy of system is improved by combining different biometric traits which are called multimodal. This system gives more accuracy as it would be difficult for imposter to spoof multiple biometric traits simultaneously. This paper reviews different methods for fusion of biometric traits

    The main aims of this chapter are to show the importance and role of human identification and recognition in the field of human-robot interaction, discuss the methods of person identification systems, namely traditional and biometrics systems, and compare the most commonly used biometric traits that are used in recognition systems such as face, ear, palmprint, iris, and speech. Then, by showing and comparing the requirements, advantages, disadvantages, recognition algorithms, challenges, and experimental results for each trait, the most suitable and efficient biometric trait for human-robot interaction will be discussed. The cases of human-robot interaction that require to use the unimodal biometric system and why the multimodal biometric system is also required will be discussed. Finally, two fusion methods for the multimodal biometric system will be presented and compared
