LivDet 2017 Fingerprint Liveness Detection Competition 2017
Fingerprint Presentation Attack Detection (FPAD) deals with distinguishing
images coming from artificial replicas of the fingerprint characteristic, made
up of materials like silicone, gelatine or latex, and images coming from alive
fingerprints. Images are captured by modern scanners, typically relying on
solid-state or optical technologies. Since from 2009, the Fingerprint Liveness
Detection Competition (LivDet) aims to assess the performance of the
state-of-the-art algorithms according to a rigorous experimental protocol and,
at the same time, a simple overview of the basic achievements. The competition
is open to all academics research centers and all companies that work in this
field. The positive, increasing trend of the participants number, which
supports the success of this initiative, is confirmed even this year: 17
algorithms were submitted to the competition, with a larger involvement of
companies and academies. This means that the topic is relevant for both sides,
and points out that a lot of work must be done in terms of fundamental and
applied research.Comment: presented at ICB 201
LivDet in Action - Fingerprint Liveness Detection Competition 2019
The International Fingerprint liveness Detection Competition (LivDet) is an
open and well-acknowledged meeting point of academies and private companies
that deal with the problem of distinguishing images coming from reproductions
of fingerprints made of artificial materials and images relative to real
fingerprints. In this edition of LivDet we invited the competitors to propose
integrated algorithms with matching systems. The goal was to investigate at
which extent this integration impact on the whole performance. Twelve
algorithms were submitted to the competition, eight of which worked on
integrated systems.Comment: Preprint version of a paper accepted at ICB 201
