| Abstract | In general, most systems for face and speaker identification are tested on high quality data collected in well-lit and quiet environments. In this study, we investigate the application of existing face and speaker identification techniques to the task of user authentication on a handheld device. In this context, the audio/visual capture hardware is of lower quality than equipment typically used in laboratory experiments. Additionally, variable background conditions which can degrade the audio/visual signal may be present. These factors can be expected to harm the performance of the system. Under these circumstances, using a combination of biometric modalities can improve the robustness and accuracy of the person identification task. In this paper, we present our approach for combining both face and speaker identification technologies on a handheld device, and experimentally demonstrate a fused multi-modal system which achieves a 90 % reduction in equal error rate over the better of the two independent systems. 1. |
