Two-dimensional cancelable biometric scheme

Most existing cancelable biometric frameworks are based on one-dimensional (ID) vectors rather than two-dimensional (2D) images or feature matrices. 2D cancelable biometrics, generated directly from images of feature matrices, were proposed based on two-directional two-dimensional fusion sparse random projection ((2D)²FSRP) and two-directional two-dimensional plus sparse random projection ((2D)²PSRP), so the storage and computational costs are both reduced. (2D)²FSRP methods play complementary advantages of 2D sparse random projection (2DSRP) and two-dimensional principal component analysis (2DPCA) or two-dimensional linear discriminant analysis (2DLDA), but they do not have ideal performance when all users have different tokens, so (2D)²PSRP methods were proposed to generate 2D cancelable face and palmprint. 2D cancelable face and palmprint schemes, which satisfactorily meet the requirements of cancelable biometrie, were determined by the experimental results and analysis.
