21. BiCCL: The Biometric Client Configuration Language
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Report Number: 7531
Topic: Biometrics
Published: 10/1/2008
Authors: Matthew L Aronoff, Ross J Micheals
Abstract: In this paper, we introduce the Biometric Client Configuration Language, or BiCCL. BiCCL is a platform-independent, domain-specific language (DSL) that formally describes the biometric acquisition process. BiCCL uses high-level constructs---e.g., se ...

26. Biometric Quality The last 1% - Biometric quality assessment for error suppression
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Report Number: 7544
Topic: Biometrics
Published: 4/6/2009
Authors: Elham Tabassi, Patrick J Grother
Abstract: Performance of biometric recognition systems degrades substantially as quality of the input samples drops. Although only a small fraction of input data are of poor-quality, the bulk of recognition errors can be attributed to poor-quality samples. ...
