This project stems from our experience in biometric testing and analyzing user behaviors when interacting with biometric systems. The aim of the project is to map acquisition errors to the user, the biometric system, or to the administrative policies. The framework establishes a structure to classify acquisition errors; either as False Interactions, Failure to Presents, or False Failure to Presents.
This work has direct application to a new work item in the international standards group ISO/IEC JTC1 SC37 titled: TR29156 Guidance for specifying performance requirements to meet security and usability needs in applications using biometrics , which seeks to address issues of performance, security, and usability related to biometrics.
