Abstract
In this paper, we describe biometric watermarking techniques for secure user verification on the remote, multimodal biometric system employing both fingerprint and face information, and compare their effects on verification accuracy quantitatively. To hide biometric data with watermarking techniques, we first consider possible two scenarios. In the Scenario 1, we use a fingerprint image as a cover work and hide facial features into it. On the contrary, we hide fingerprint features into a facial image in the Scenario 2. Based on the experimental results, we confirm that the Scenario 2 is superior to the Scenario 1 in terms of the verification accuracy of the watermarked image.
