Title: Biometrics Evaluation and Testing
Type: FP7-SECURITY, CP-FP: Small or Medium-scale Focused Research Project
Code: SEC-2011.5.1-1-284989
Funding entity: ca. 3.5 Meuros ( ca. 530 Keuros for UAM)
Participants: 10 EU Institutions, including Univ. Autonoma de Madrid
Period: March 2012 - February 2016
Principal investigator(s): Sebastien Marcel (Julian Fierrez for UAM)
Objectives:
- Identity management using Biometrics is deployed in a growing number of applications ranging from identification platforms (e.g. biometric passports) to access control systems for border checks or banking transactions. Unfortunately, the reliability of these technologies remains difficult to compare. There are no european-wide standards for evaluating their accuracy, their robustness to attacks or their privacy preservation strength.
- BEAT will fill this gap by building an online and open platform to transparently evaluate biometric systems, designing protocols and tools for vulnerability analysis and developing standardization documents for Common Criteria evaluations. The planned impact is three-fold: the reliability of biometric systems becomes standardized and comparable, potentially leading to a meaningful increase in their performance; technology transfer from research to companies becomes easier with the use of an interoperable framework; authorities and decision-makers become more informed about the progress made in biometrics as results impact standards.

Title: Trusted Biometrics under Spoofing Attacks
Type: FP7-ICT, CP: Collaborative Project
Code: FP7-ICT-257289
Funding entity: ca. 4 Meuros ( ca. 369 Keuros for UAM)
Participants: 12 EU Institutions, including Univ. Autonoma de Madrid
Period: November 2010 - March 2014
Principal investigator(s): Sebastien Marcel (Julian Fierrez for UAM)
Objectives:
-
To study direct (spoofing) attacks to trusted biometric systems. This is an issue that needs to be addressed urgently because it has recently been shown that conventional biometric techniques, such as fingerprints and face, are vulnerable to direct (spoof) attacks. Direct attacks are performed by falsifying the biometric trait and then presenting this falsified information to the biometric system. One example is to fool a fingerprint system by copying the fingerprint of another person and creating an artificial or gummy finger which can then be presented to the biometric system to falsely gain access.
- To develop a set of best practices and standards to examine this problem.
- To propose countermeasures such as combining biometric information from multiple sources.
- To examine novel biometrics that may be inherently robust to direct attacks.

Objectives:
- To provide a training infrastructure that will educate Early Stage Researchers in the core biometric technologies of speaker, face and fingerprint recognition, as well as the forensic aspects of these technologies.
- According to modern interpretation of evidence in court, biometric evidence must be presented as likelihood ratios. The calibration of likelihood ratios of individual behavioural and physical biometrics and of combinations of biometric modalities, including measures of the quality of the traces, is a unifying topic in all research projects in this Network.
- The training of ESRs will be realized as individual PhD projects at various research labs, including a forensic institute. Apart from training at their host institute and secondments with other network partners, the ESRs will receive training in dedicated Summer Schools on Biometric Signal Processing, Bayesian Techniques in Forensic Applications and Legal Issues in Forensic Applications.
- The Network combines 8 European Universities and a leading Forensic Institute; it is augmented by a biometric industrial and a research institute, where secondments of the ESRs will take place.

Title: On the Use of Transparent Modalities in Multibiometric Recognition Systems for Low Vulnerability and High User-Convenience in Realistic Application-Oriented Environments
Type: Research project (National R&D Program)
Code: TEC2006-13141-C03-03
Funding entity: Spanish Ministry of Education and Science
Participants: Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Univ. Autonoma de Madrid and Esc. Univ. Politec. Mataro
Period: December 2006 – December 2009
Principal investigator(s): Miguel Angel Ferrer Ballester, Javier Ortega-Garcia (for UAM)
Description:The use of biometric recognition systems has yielded significant progress in the last years. However, considerable advances on both system precision and cost reduction of sensors, has not produced an increase in user confidence, mainly due to lack of reliability in real operational environments, and also due to privacy and vulnerability concerns. In order to alleviate the problems generated by the adoption of biometric systems, which are in any case highly valuable for industrials, this project proposes an innovative development of a biometric scheme operating in realistic environments.
