Intelligent Computing for Automated Biometrics, Criminal and Forensic Applications

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 4681))

Abstract

In many cases human identification biometrics systems are motivated by real-life criminal and forensic applications. Some methods, such as fingerprinting and face recognition, proved to be very efficient in computer vision based human recognition systems. In this paper we focus on novel methods of human identification motivated by the forensic and criminal practice. Our goal is to develop computer vision systems that would be used to identify humans on the basis of their lips, palm and ear images.
