Springer, 2016. — 388.
The book is intended for biometrics researchers, including practitioners and students who either work or plan to become familiar with understanding and processing single-spectral, multispectral, or hyperspectral face images—when captured under controlled or uncontrolled environments, using a variety of imaging sensors, ranging from the state-of-the-art visible and infrared imaging sensors, to the usage of RGB-D and mobile phone image sensors.
The book provides various references for image processing, computer vision, biometrics, and security-focused researchers. The material provides information on current technology including discussion on research areas related to the spectral imaging of human skin, data collection activities, processing and analysis of multispectral and hyperspectral face and iris images, processing of mug shots from ID documents, mobile- and 3D-based face recognition, spoofing attacks, image alterations, score normalization techniques, and multispectral ocular biometrics.
