Mobile Biometry

Project description


Secure, dependable and trusted Infrastructures

Portable personal devices (PDAs or mobile phones) are indeed widely used.
They provide the mobile worker or the customer with portable computing and wireless access to Telecom networks.
It is then possible to access many services (phone card reloading, remote purchase or telephone banking).
The conventional means of identification (passwords, secret codes and PINs) can easily be compromised, shared, observed, stolen or forgotten.
Determining the identities of users can be achieved through the use of biometrics.

Since more portable devices are equipped with a microphone and a video camera,
MOBIO will focus on multiple aspects of biometric authentication based on face and voice authentication.

MOBIO will thus address several innovative aspects relative to bi-modal authentication systems in the framework of mobile devices:
1. Researching joint bi-modal authentication algorithms to take advantage of temporal correlations between modalities,
2. Investigating model adaptation techniques to reduce the degradation of biometric systems over time,
3. Analysing the scalability of the proposed solutions,
4. Providing common evaluation tools and baseline results.

The project will also address the development of demonstration systems, running either entirely on a mobile phone or partially on a server if resources needed to reach the required performance is too high.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: https://op.europa.eu/en/web/eu-vocabularies/euroscivoc.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Call for proposal

Procedure for inviting applicants to submit project proposals, with the aim of receiving EU funding.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
