Abstract
Combining multiple biometrics may enhance the performance of personal authentication system in accuracy and reliability. In this paper, we compare 13 combination methods in the context of combining the voiceprint and fingerprint recognition system in two different modes: verification and identification. The experimental results show that Support Vector Machine and the Dempster-Shafer method are superior to other schemes.
