There are many different possible biometrics. One way to view +different biometrics are how intrusive they are. More intrusive biometrics +include fingerprints, irises, and DNA; less intrusive are faces, speech, and +gait~\cite{phillips98}. Generally, there is a tradeoff between the level of +user cooperation required and the accuracy that can be +attained~\cite{liu01,bio-survey}. + +Alternatively, biometrics can be divided into physiological and behavioral +traits. Physiological traits include faces, fingerprints, and irises; speech +and gait are behavioral. Face and gait recognition are the most relevent +biometrics for this paper as they both are unobtrusive and rely on image +processing. Gait recognition usually involves determining the outline of a +person from an image~\cite{bio-survey}, but algorithms similar to gait +recognition have been developed for range cameras as well~\cite{gomez:hgbu11}. +Face recognition receives a lot of attention from the research +community~\cite{face-survey}, also including at least one example incorporating +a range camera~\cite{gordon91}. Since behavioral traits typically are more +characteristic as opposed to unique for identification beyond a certain +scale~\cite{seven-issues}, we will compare the results of skeleton recognition +to face recognition. + + + +Jain~\etal + +\paragraph{Skeleton mapping} |
