This study provides a thorough analysis of the various biometric types, including their advantages and disadvantages. It compares the different types and provides details about false acceptance and false rejection rates, along with their equations. Biometric screening systems are used to test and identify persons using their physiological or behavioral characteristics. Using only one recognition device is not suitable for identification systems. Multi-factor authentication can improve system security by using two or more kinds of security types, such as passwords and cards, but this is not an ideal security scheme. Passwords may be forgotten or inputted incorrectly, or the identification card may be stolen. To verify and classify people using their physiological attributes, biometric devices are used. These technologies can be classified as either behavioral or physiological biometrics. The former has many shortcomings, such as noisy data, inter-class similarity, intra-class variability, spoofing and universality, which reduce the system's accuracy. The success rate of recognition and verification is, however, substantially improved by multimodal biometric sensing and processing systems, which leverage the detection or processing of two or more behavioral or physiological traits.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
