TY - GEN ID - cogprints6690 UR - http://cogprints.org/6690/ A1 - Schatten, Markus A1 - Baca, Miroslav A1 - Cubrilo, Mirko Y1 - 2009/08// N2 - 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.
