With the soaring development of body sensor network (BSN)-based health informatics, information security in such medical devices has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Employing the biosignals acquired directly by the BSN as biometrics for personal identification is an effective approach. Noncancelability and cross-application invariance are two natural flaws of most traditional biometric modalities. Once the biometric template is exposed, it is compromised forever. Even worse, because the same biometrics may be employed as tokens for different accounts in multiple applications, the exposed template can be used to compromise other accounts. In this work, we propose a cancelable and cross-application discrepant biometric approach based on high-density surface electromyogram (HD-sEMG) for personal identification. We enrolled two accounts for each user. HD-sEMG signals from the right dorsal hand under isometric contractions of different finger muscles were employed as biometrics tokens. Since isometric contraction, in contrast to dynamic contraction, requires no actual movement, the users' choice to login to different accounts is greatly protected against impostors. We realized a promising identification accuracy of 85.76% for 44 identities (22 subjects × 2 accounts) with training and testing data acquired 9 days apart. The high identification accuracy of different accounts for the same user demonstrates the promising cancelability and cross-application discrepancy of the proposed HD-sEMG-based biometrics. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to employ HD-sEMG in personal identification applications.
