| Abstract | Nowadays, the demand for robust and secure identity recognition systems is increasing. Cancelable biometric systems emerge as one of the possible answers in this context. The present work aims to develop a new system of this kind applied to electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, based on two major techniques: a) exploring hermite polynomial approximations of the ECG; b) a dissimilarity based representation. The hermite polynomial approximation is applied directly to the ECG records, leading to a new representation, avoiding original data storage. The dissimilarity based representation can be applied to any characteristic which fulfils the criteria established by biometrics and its recognition process (authentication and identification) is done in a different space from the original one, granting security and robustness to the proposed system. This proposed methodology was applied to a database with records regarding 612 subjects, evaluating the influence of several parameters related with both the hermite polynomial approximation and the dissimilarity based representation. The system was compared with a classic biometric system as well as with a cancelable one using electrocardiogram. The system had a good performance regarding authentication. When the hermite polynomial approximations were presented as input to the system, a slightly decrease on performance was verified when compared with the system using the original records. Using a biometric menagerie technique, it was possible to make conclusions regarding the quality of the records contained on the used database. |
