20080285815 | METHOD, SYSTEM, AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR TRANSFORMING A BIOMETRIC IMAGE - The invention provides a method, system, and program product for transforming a multi-dimensional biometric feature point set. More particularly, the invention provides a method for transforming a biometric image using surface folding of the image. In one embodiment, the invention provides a method for transforming a multi-dimensional biometric feature point set, the method comprising: converting the multi-dimensional biometric feature point set to a canonical position and orientation; applying a non-invertible transform function to each of a plurality of points of the biometric feature point set; and providing a transformed biometric feature point set comprising a plurality of transformed points. | 11-20-2008 |
20090123034 | Method, Apparatus and Computer Program Product Implementing Anonymous Biometric Matching - Method, apparatus and computer program product compare biometrics in an anonymous manner. A first collection of biometrics is transformed using a first cancelable non-invertible biometric transform to create a first collection of transformed biometrics. A second collection of biometrics is transformed using the first cancelable non-invertible biometric transform to create a second collection of transformed biometrics. The first and second collection of transformed biometrics are then compared in the transformed domain to determine if any of the transformed biometrics from the first collection match any of the transformed biometrics from the second collection. If a match is found, the parties respectively maintaining the first and second collections of biometrics exchange information confidential nature of the biometrics are maintained by the entities responsible for the collections, since the biometrics are not compared in an untransformed state. | 05-14-2009 |
20090310830 | Anonymous and Revocable Fingerprint Recognition - A biometric representation of a fingerprint from which the original biometric cannot be recovered (privacy) and which can be canceled and reissued. For example, based on an individual's token, the representation can be scrambled uniquely to the individual. From the scrambled biometric representation it is not feasible to reconstruct the biometric and if the representation is compromised, a new one is easily issued. In another aspect, if a biometric can be represented by some other one-dimensional structure, a distance or similarity measure is defined to compare biometrics. Verification decisions can be made based on the distance between or similarity of biometrics. | 12-17-2009 |
20120200392 | Method, Apparatus and Computer Program Product Implementing Anonymous Biometric Matching - Method, apparatus and computer program product compare biometrics in an anonymous manner. A first collection of biometrics is transformed using a first cancelable non-invertible biometric transform to create a first collection of transformed biometrics. A second collection of biometrics is transformed using the first cancelable non-invertible biometric transform to create a second collection of transformed biometrics. The first and second collection of transformed biometrics are then compared in the transformed domain to determine if any of the transformed biometrics from the first collection match any of the transformed biometrics from the second collection. If a match is found, the parties respectively maintaining the first and second collections of biometrics exchange information concerning the individual associated with the matching biometrics. In this manner the confidential nature of the biometrics are maintained by the entities responsible for the collections, since the biometrics are not compared in an untransformed state. | 08-09-2012 |

A plurality of biometric entries is obtained and each one is encrypted with a unique non-invertible encryption function to get a plurality of encrypted biometric entries. A biometric measurement to be compared against the biometric entries is obtained, a predetermined noise is applied to the biometric measurement, and then the biometric measurement if encrypted using the non-invertible encryption function, resulting in a scrambled encrypted biometric. For each comparison, one of the encrypted biometric entries is subtracted from the scrambled encrypted biometric to get a calculated noise. This calculated noise is then compared with the predetermined noise to determine whether a match exists. Based on a determination that a match exists any information associated with the encrypted biometric entry is forwarded to the requestor. | 08-22-2013 |
