Course detail
Biometric Systems (in English)
FIT-BIOeAcad. year: 2022/2023
Theory of the signal processing, especially image signal processing, for the purposes of the biometry. Introduction of the basic methods and techniques of the static single biometric features: fingerprint, hand geometry, face and its thermogram, iris, retina, handwriting. Recognition using the dynamic features: lip movements, typing or gait. Standards in the biometry. Applications of the biometry.

Aims
To learn the actual biometric technologies (fingerprint, eye retina, eye iris, DNA etc.) and their application in the IT and in the security systems. To learn methods for evaluation of the reliability and quality of the biometric systems, including biometric standards.
Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences
Mid-term exam, presence in the laboratory practice, projects and final exam are monitored and given points for. There is no way to obtain the points for the mid-term exam, project after the deadline and laboratory practice additionally. Final exam has two additional correction possibilities.
