Innovation has formed much of the rich history in biometrics. The field of soft biometrics was originally aimed to augment the recognition process by fusion of metrics that were sufficient to discriminate populations rather than individuals. This was later refined to use measures that could be used to discriminate individuals, especially using ...

Soft biometrics: a survey [PDF]
AbstractThe field of biometrics research encompasses the need to associate an identity to an individual based on the persons physiological or behaviour traits. While the use of intrusive techniques such as retina scans and finger print identification has resulted in highly accurate systems, the scalability of such systems in real-world applications ...

First Report of 'Soft Flesh' Induced by the Parasite Kudoa thyrsites (Myxosporea) in Commercial Codfish From Norway. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Kudoa thyrsites is a myxosporean parasite that infects the skeletal muscle of various teleost fish species globally. Severe infections lead to ‘soft flesh’ in fish fillets, resulting in food spoilage and subsequent discard. While K. thyrsites has previously been identified in migratory Atlantic mackerel in the northern Northeast Atlantic Ocean,

On Soft-Biometric Information Stored in Biometric Face Embeddings [PDF]
The success of modern face recognition systems is based on the advances of deeply-learned features. These embeddings aim to encode the identity of an individual such that these can be used for recognition. However, recent works have shown that more information beyond the user’s identity is stored in these embeddings, such as demographics, image ...
