Abstract
A new approach in human identification is investigated. For this purpose, a standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) recorded during rest is used. Selected features extracted from the ECG are used to identify a person in a predetermined group. Multivariate analysis is used for the identification task. Experiments show that it is possible to identify a person by features extracted from one lead only. Hence, only three electrodes have to be attached on the person to be identified. This makes the method applicable without too much effort.

ECG to identify individuals

TL;DR: The tests show that the extracted features are independent of sensor location, invariant to the individual's state of anxiety, and unique to an individual.

A security system based on human iris identification using wavelet transform

TL;DR: A security system based on the recognition of the iris of human eyes using the wavelet transform using only a few selected intermediate resolution levels for matching, thus making it computationally efficient as well as less sensitive to noise and quantisation errors.
