Abstrakt: Biometrics is an active area of research because of the increase in need for accurate person identification in numerous applications ranging from entertainment to security. Unimodal and multimodal are the well-known biometric methods. Unimodal biometrics uses one biometric modality of a person for person identification. The performance of an unimodal biometric system is degraded due to certain limitations such as: intra-class variations and nonuniversality. The person identification using more than one biometric modality of a person is multimodal biometrics. This method of identification has gained more interest due to resistance on spoof attacks and more recognition rate. Conventional methods of feature extraction have difficulty in engineering features that are liable to more variations such as illumination, pose and age variations. Feature extraction using convolution neural network (CNN) can overcome these difficulties because large dataset with robust variations can be used for training, where CNN can learn these variations. In this paper, we propose multimodal biometrics at feature level horizontal fusion using face, ear and periocular region biometric modalities and apply deep learning CNN for feature representation and also we propose face, ear and periocular region dataset that are robust to intra-class variations. The evaluation of the system is made by using proposed database. Accuracy, Precision, Recall and F 1 score are calculated to evaluate the performance of the system and had shown remarkable improvement over existing biometric system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
