Riassunto

Today's security systems are farm from perfect, leaving the world's free citizensvulnerable to criminal activity ranging from computer viruses to terroristcampaigns. One of the most paramount challenges of today's engineers isidentifying and tracking individuals who are capable of committing such acts.This task will become less complex with the advent of the latest authenticationand recognition technology - mainly biometric authentication.This book presents practical ways of implementing biometric authenticationsystems based on human faces and voices. It bridges the gap betweenbiometric research (the theoretical aspect of pattern classification) andbiometric system design(the system design and deployment issues of biometricsystems).After reading this book Engineers will be able to build reliable applications thatwill support today's robust authentication systems - securing us all.
