Abstract

Synthetic Biometric is emerging nowadays as a new research field in biometrics. An artificial iris tissue or a synthetic fingerprint could compromise the security, allowing a non-registered individual to enter the system. However, inverse biometric can also improve current identification systems, enhancing not only its strength against fake-based attacks, but also by replicating unavailable or corrupted data, due to a bad acquisition, for instance. The methods proposed in this document aim to provide a procedure to create a synthetic iris tissue from a stored biometric template, so that a non-registered user could access the system under a registered identity. These algorithms will come out with the result that synthetic sample could be so similar to original as desired.
