Abstract:In this paper, we propose a new approach based on watermarking for fusing biometric modalities. The main idea of the proposed approach is to use the watermark both for security purpose and as an additional information related to the person, therefore increasing the personal data used for verification. The host image of the face is watermarked in the multi-resolution space by the palmprint using a watermarking technique based on wavelet packet decomposition. For the verification stage, the characterization of t… Show more
