This paper presents keystroke dynamics based authentication system using the information set concept. Two types of membership functions (MFs) are computed: one based on the timing features of all the samples and another based on the timing features of a single sample. These MFs lead to two types of information components (spatial and temporal) which are concatenated and modified to produce different feature types. Two Component Information Set (TCIS) is proposed for keystroke dynamics based user authentication. The keystroke features are converted into TCIS features which are then classified by SVM, Random Forest and proposed Convex Entropy Based Hanman Classifier. The TCIS features are capable of representing the spatial and temporal uncertainties. The performance of the proposed features is tested on CMU benchmark dataset in terms of error rates (FAR, FRR, EER) and accuracy of the features. In addition, the proposed features are also tested on Android Touch screen based Mobile Keystroke Dataset. The TCIS features improve the performance and give lower error rates and better accuracy than that of the existing features in literature.
This paper presents the formulation of the possibilistic Renyi entropy function from the Renyi entropy function using the framework of Hanman-Anirban entropy function. The new entropy function is used to derive the information set features from keystroke dynamics for the authentication of users. A new composite fuzzy classifier is also proposed based on Mamta-Hanman entropy function and applied on the Information Set based features. A comparison of the results of the proposed approach with those of Support Vector Machine and Random Forest classifier shows that the new classifier outperforms the other two.
