Researchers in the Biometric Technologies Laboratory at the University of Calgary have developed a way for security systems to combine different biometric measurements-such as eye colour, face shape or fingerprints-and create a learning system that simulates the brain in making decisions about information from different sources.
Marina Gavrilova, the founding head of the lab-among the first in the research community to introduce and study neural network based models for information fusion-says they have developed a biometric security system that simulates learning patterns and cognitive processes of the brain
