Issue Date: | 2005 | Publisher: | Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) | Conference: | 39th Annual International Carnahan Conference on Security Technology | Abstract: | Ear analysis is an emergent biometric application. The main advantages are the no requirement for subject contact and acquisition without demand. To recognize a subject's ear, we aim to extract a characteristic vector from a human ear image that may subsequently be used to identify or confirm the identity of the owner. Towards this end, a new technique, combining geodesic active contours and a new ovoid model, has been developed, which can be used to compare ears in an independent way of the ear location and size. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/46201 | ISBN: | 0-7803-9245-0 | DOI: | 10.1109/CCST.2005.1594829 | Source: | Proceedings 39Th Annual 2005 International Carnahan Conference On Security Technology, p. 145-148 |
