Abstract

Biometric authentication has been emerged as a reliable means to control a person's access to physical and virtual places. Despite the various efforts made on biometrics, accuracy of the authentication/identification is the main concern and it has to be completely investigated. The paper presents critical analysis of the matching score values in such a manner that system accuracy is increased. Min Max Threshold Range (MMTR) technique is proposed that provides two levels of authentication and increase in accuracy is observed. The methodology of increase in accuracy is observed on various feature extraction methods.
