Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper formulates an evidence-theoretic multimodal unification approach using belief functions that takes into account the variability in biometric image characteristics. While processing non-ideal images the variation in the quality of features at different levels of abstraction may cause individual classifiers to generate conflicting genuine-impostor decisions. Existing fusion approaches are non-adaptive and do not always guarantee optimum performance improvements.
