Preface
Biometrics uses methods for unique recognition of humans based upon one or more
intrinsic physical or behavioral traits. In computer science, particularly, biometrics is
used as a form of identity access management and access control. It is also used to
identifyindividualsingroupsthatareundersurveillance.
The key objective of the book is to provide comprehensive reference and text on
humanauthent
icationandpeopleidentityverificationfromphysiological,behavioural
and other points of view (medical biometrics). It aims to publish new insights into
currentinnovationsincomputersystems and technologyforbiometrics development
anditsapplications.

book chapters are divided into three sections: physical biometrics, behavioral
biometrics and medical biometrics. In the first physical biometrics section, there are
seven chapters. Chapter 1 provides an in‐depth look at speaker recognition and

X Preface
In Section 2, two kinds of behavioral biometrics: keystroke dynamics and DWT
domain on‐line signature verification are introduced in chapter 8 and chapter 9
respectively. In section 3, medical biometrics constitutes another category of new
biometricrecognitionmodalitiesthatencompassessignals whicharetypicallyusedin
clinical diagnostics, so chapter 10 gi
ves a survey on heart biometrics with its theory,
methods and applications. Chapter 11 proposes the usage of heart sounds for
biometric recognition, describes the strengths and the weaknesses of the novel trait
and analyzes in detail the methods developed sofar and their performance. Chapter
12 investigates the temporal chang
