Optimization of bimodal biometrics system for access control authentication.

M. Tech. Computer System EngineeringA single biometric trait for authentication is widely used in some application areas where security is of high importance. However, biometric systems are susceptible to noise, intraclass variation, non-universality and spoof attacks. Thus, there is need to use algorithms that overcome all these limitations found in biometric systems. The use of multimodal biometrics can improve the performance of authentication system. This study proposed using both fingerprint and face for authentication in access system
