Biometrics

Definition Biometrics
Biometrics is the technical term for body measurements and calculations. It refers to
metrics related to human characteristics. Biometrics authentication (or realistic
authentication)is used in computer science as a form of identification and access
control. It is also used to identify individuals in groups that are under surveillance.
Biometric identifiers are the distinctive, measurable characteristics used to label and
describe individuals. Biometric identifiers are often categorized as physiological versus
behavioral characteristics.[4] Physiological characteristics are related to the shape of the
body. Examples include, but are not limited to fingerprint, palm veins, face recognition,
DNA, palm print, hand geometry, iris recognition, retina and odour/scent. Behavioral
characteristics are related to the pattern of behavior of a person, including but not
limited to typing rhythm, gait, and voice. Some researchers have coined the term
behaviometrics to describe the latter class of biometrics.
