Purpose Biometric systems are widely used for face recognition. They have rapidly developed in recent years. Compared with other approaches, such as fingerprint recognition, handwriting verification and retinal and iris scanning, face recognition is more straightforward, user friendly and extensively used. The aforementioned approaches, including face recognition, are vulnerable to malicious attacks by impostors; in such cases, face liveness detection comes in handy to ensure both accuracy and robustness. Liveness is an important feature that reflects physiological signs and differentiates artificial from real biometric traits. This paper aims to provide a simple path for the future development of more robust and accurate liveness detection approaches. Design/methodology/approach This paper discusses about introduction to the face biometric system, liveness detection in face recognition system and comparisons between the different discussed works of existing measures. Originality/value This paper presents an overview, comparison and discussion of proposed face liveness detection methods to provide a reference for the future development of more robust and accurate liveness detection approaches.

Fingerprint image segmentation is an important pre-processing step in automatic fingerprint recognition system. A well-designed fingerprint segmentation technique can improve the accuracy in collecting clear fingerprint area and mark noise areas. The traditional grey variance segmentation method is widely and easily used, but it can hardly segment fingerprints with low contrast of high noise. To overcome the low image contrast, combining two-block feature; mean of gradient magnitude and coherence, where the fingerprint image is segmented into background, foreground or noisy regions,  has been done. Except for the noisy regions in the foreground, there are still such noises existed in the background whose coherences are low, and are mistakenly assigned as foreground. A novel segmentation method based on combination local mean of grey-scale and local variance of gradient magnitude is presented in this paper. The proposed extraction begins with normalization of the fingerprint. Then, it is<span style="text-decoration: line-through;"> </span>followed by foreground region separation from the background. Finally, the gradient coherence approach is used to detect the noise regions existed in the foreground. Experimental results on NIST-Database14 fingerprint images indicate that the proposed method gives the impressive results.

Feature extraction is unquestionably an important process in a pattern recognition system. A defined set of features makes the identification task more efficiently. This paper addresses the extraction and analysis of features based on statistical texture to characterize images of timber defects. A series of procedures including feature extraction and feature analysis was executed to construct an appropriate feature set that could significantly separate amongst defects and clear wood classes. The feature set aimed for later use in a timber defect detection system. For Accessing the discrimination capability of the features extracted, visual exploratory analysis and confirmatory statistical analysis were performed on defect and clear wood images of Meranti (Shorea spp.) timber species. Results from the analysis demonstrated that there was a significant distinction between defect classes and clear wood utilizing the proposed set of texture features.

Fingerprint recognition plays an important role in identification of organism characters. Automatic fingerprint identification system(AFIS)is a technology based on computer or microprocessor with advantages of convenience and high efficiency. The extraction and matching of fingerprint minutiae is a necessary step in automatic fingerprint recognition system. A set of algorithms for minutiae extraction and minutiae matching of fingerprint image are proposed in this paper based on the analysis of the inherent minutiae of fingerprint.

This paper presents the application of Gaussian blur filters and Support Vector Machine (SVM) techniques for greeting recognition among the Yoruba tribe of Nigeria. Existing efforts have considered different recognition gestures. However, tribal greeting postures or gestures recognition for the Nigerian geographical space has not been studied before. Some cultural gestures are not correctly identified by people of the same tribe, not to mention other people from different tribes, thereby posing a challenge of misinterpretation of meaning. Also, some cultural gestures are unknown to most people outside a tribe, which could also hinder human interaction; hence there is a need to automate the recognition of Nigerian tribal greeting gestures. This work hence develops a Gaussian Blur – SVM based system capable of recognizing the Yoruba tribe greeting postures for men and women. Videos of individuals performing various greeting gestures were collected and processed into image frames. The images were resized and a Gaussian blur filter was used to remove noise from them. This research used a moment-based feature extraction algorithm to extract shape features that were passed as input to SVM. SVM is exploited and trained to perform the greeting gesture recognition task to recognize two Nigerian tribe greeting postures. To confirm the robustness of the system, 20%, 25% and 30% of the dataset acquired from the preprocessed images were used to test the system. A recognition rate of 94% could be achieved when SVM is used, as shown by the result which invariably proves that the proposed method is efficient.

This paper describes the development of a human gait activity recognition system. A multi-sensor recognition system, which has been developed for this purpose, was reduced to a single sensor-based recognition system. A sensor election method was devised based on the maximum relevance minimum redundancy feature selector to determine the sensor’s optimum position regarding activity recognition. The election method proved that the thigh has the highest contribution to recognize walking, stairs and ramp ascending, and descending activities. A recognition algorithm (which depends mainly on features that are classified by random forest, and selected by a combined feature selector using the maximum relevance minimum redundancy and genetic algorithm) has been modified to compensate the degradation that occurs in the prediction accuracy due to the reduction in the number of sensors. The first modification was implementing a double layer classifier in order to discriminate between the interfered activities. The second modification was adding physical features to the features dictionary used. These modifications succeeded to improve the prediction accuracy to allow a single sensor recognition system to behave in the same manner as a multi-sensor activity recognition system.
