  3. Reference Paper • A. K. Jain, K. Nandakumar, and A. Ross, “Score normalization in multimodal biometric systems," Pattern Recognition , 2005.

  4. Why score normalization ? • 1. The matching scores at the output of the individual matchers may not be homogeneous. • 2. The outputs of the individual matchers need not be on the same numerical scale (range). • 3. The matching scores at the output of the matchers may follow different statistical distributions.

  5. Why score normalization ? • Score normalization refers to changing the location and scale parameters of the matching score distributions at the output of the individual matchers, so that the matching scores of different matchers are transformed into a common domain.

  6. Score normalization • When the parameters used for normalization are determined using a fixed training set, it is referred to as fixed score normalization. • In adaptive score normalization, the normalization parameters are estimated based on the current feature vector.

  7. A good normalization scheme • Robustness refers to insensitivity to the presence of outliers. • Efficiencyrefers to the proximity of the obtained estimate to the optimal estimate when the distribution of the data is known.

  8. Normalization Techniques • 1. Min-max • 2. Decimal scaling • 3. z-score • 4. Median and MAD • 5. Double sigmoid function • 6. tanh-estimators

  9. 1. Min-max normalization • Min-max normalization is best suited for the case where the bounds (maximum and minimum values) of the scores produced by a matcher are known. • We usually shift the minimum and maximum scores to 0 and 1. • xk : the kth matching score before normalization • xk’ : the kth matching score after normalization

  10. 1. Min-max normalization • This method is not robust (i.e., the method is highly sensitive to outliers in the data used for estimation). • Min-max normalization retains the original distribution of scores except for a scaling factor and transforms all the scores into a common range [0, 1].

  11. 2. Decimal scaling • For example, if one matcher has scores in the range [0, 1] and the other has scores in the range [0, 1000], the following normalization could be applied. • The problems with this approach are lack of robustness.

  12. 3. z-score • The most commonly used score normalization technique is the z-score that is calculated using the arithmetic mean and standard deviation of the given data. • Both mean and standard deviation are sensitive to outliers and, hence, this method is not robust. • Z-score normalization does not guarantee a common numerical range for the normalized scores of the different matchers. • If the input scores are not Gaussian distributed, z-score normalization does not retain the input distribution at the output.

  13. 3. z-score

  14. 4. Median and MAD • Robust : The median and median absolute deviation (MAD) are insensitive to outliers and the points in the extreme tails of the distribution. • This normalization technique does not retain the input distribution and does not transform the scores into a common numerical range.

  15. 4. Median and MAD

  16. 5. Double sigmoid function • The normalized score is given by where m is the reference operating point and s1 and s2 denote the left and right edges of the region

  17. 5. Double sigmoid function • where the scores in the [0, 300] range are mapped to the [0, 1] range using m = 200, s1 = 20 and s2 = 30. • Generally, m is chosen to be some value falling in the region of overlap between the genuine and impostor score distribution, and s1 and s2 are made equal to the extent of overlap between the two distributions toward the left and right of m, respectively.

  18. 5. Double sigmoid function

  19. Hampel estimators are based on the following influence ( )-function: 6. tanh-estimators • The tanh-estimators introduced by Hampel et al. are robust and highly efficient. • The normalization is given by where μGH and σGH are the mean and standard deviation estimates, respectively, of the genuine score distribution as given by Hampel estimators

  20. 6. tanh-estimators

  30. Feature Level Fusion • “Biometric A” feature vectors : X • “Biometric B” feature vectors : Y • Normalization -> X’ , Y’ • Dimension reduction • Combine two vector -> Z’ = { X’ , Y’ }

  31. Reference Paper • A. Ross and R. Govindarajan. “Feature Level Fusion Using Hand and Face Biometrics.” In Proc. SPIE Conf. on Biometric Technology for Human Identication II, volume 5779, pages 196-204,Orlando, 2005. • SON, B. and LEE, Y. “The Fusion of Two User-friendly Biometric Modalities: Iris and Face”, IEICE Transactions on Information and Systems , 2006.

  32. Fusion in feature and matching level • Normalization method : median and MAD • Dimension reduction method : PCA , LDA • Matching score fusion method : sum rule • Consider feature vectors {Xi ,Yi} and {Xj , Yj} obtained at two different time instances i and j. • Fusion in feature level -> { Zi ,Zj } • Let sX and sY be the normalized match (Euclidean distance) scores generated by comparing Xi with Xj and Yi with Yj , respectively. • smatch = (sX + sY)/2 be the fused match score obtained using the simple sum rule.

  33. Experimentation • A set of 500 face images and hand images were acquired from 100 users (5 biometric samples per user per biometric) • Each face image was decomposed into its component R, G, B channels. Further, the grayscale rendition of the color image - I - was also computed. • The Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) were performed on these component images (i.e., R, G, B, I) in order to extract representational features.
