TL;DR: A brief overview of the field of biometrics is given and some of its advantages, disadvantages, strengths, limitations, and related privacy concerns are summarized.

TL;DR: Study of the performance of different normalization techniques and fusion rules in the context of a multimodal biometric system based on the face, fingerprint and hand-geometry traits of a user found that the application of min-max, z-score, and tanh normalization schemes followed by a simple sum of scores fusion method results in better recognition performance compared to other methods.

TL;DR: This paper addresses the problem of information fusion in biometric verification systems by combining information at the matching score level by combining three biometric modalities (face, fingerprint and hand geometry).

TL;DR: This book addresses the void in biometrics research by inviting some of the prominent researchers in Biometrics to contribute chapters describing the fundamentals as well as the latest innovations in their respective areas of expertise.

TL;DR: Details multi-modal biometrics and its exceptional utility for increasingly reliable human recognition systems and the substantial advantages of multimodal systems over conventional identification methods.
