title: Towards a General Definition of Biometric Systems creator: Schatten, Markus creator: Baca, Miroslav creator: Cubrilo, Mirko subject: Dynamical Systems description: A foundation for closing the gap between biometrics in the narrower and the broader perspective is presented trough a conceptualization of biometric systems in both perspectives. A clear distinction between verification, identification and classification systems is made as well as shown that there are additional classes of biometric systems. In the end a Unified Modeling Language model is developed showing the connections between the two perspectives. publisher: International Journal of Computer Science Issues, IJCSI date: 2009-08 type: Journal (Paginated) type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: http://cogprints.org/6690/1/2-1-7.pdf identifier: Schatten, Markus and Baca, Miroslav and Cubrilo, Mirko (2009) Towards a General Definition of Biometric Systems.
