Abstract

Information security has become an inseparable aspect of the field of information technology as a result of advancements in the industry. Authentication is crucial when it comes to dealing with security. A user must be identified using biometrics based on certain physiological and behavioral markers. To validate or establish the identification of an individual requesting their services, a variety of systems require trustworthy personal recognition schemes. The goal of such systems is to ensure that the offered services are only accessible by authorized users and not by others. This case study provides enhanced accuracy for multimodal biometric authentication based on voice and face hence, reducing the equal error rate. The proposed scheme utilizes the Gaussian mixture model for voice recognition, FaceNet model for face recognition and score level fusion to determine the identity of the user. The results reveal that the proposed scheme has the lowest equal error rate in comparison to the previous work.
