Abstract

Template protection techniques like cancellable biometrics have been introduced in order to overcome privacy issues in biometric applications. We conduct an ISO/IEC Standard 24745 compliant assessment of block re-mapping and warping focusing on recognition performance issues as well as security and unlinkability aspects. Both of these template protection schemes are applied on a multi-biometrics dataset in the signal (image) domain. The dataset includes 2D face, iris and periocular images which have been acquired not only using visual light (VIS) but also near-infrared light (NIR). With respect to the used data, this is the first study that applies and evaluates cancellable template protection methods in the signal domain on VIS/NIR 2D face, iris and periocular biometrics.
