Subject specific learning outcomes and competences
Theory of the signal processing, functionality of different biometric technologies and of their importance in the IT security, including systems for the police purposes. Knowledge of the methods of the biometric systems evaluation.
Learning objectives
To learn the actual biometric technologies (fingerprint, eye retina, eye iris, DNA etc.) and their application in the IT and in the security systems. To learn methods for evaluation of the reliability and quality of the biometric systems, including biometric standards.
Results of the course are information in the theory of the signal processing, functionality of different biometric technologies and of their importance in the IT security, including systems for the police purposes. Knowledge of the methods of the biometric systems evaluation.
Why is the course taught
Students will become familiar with biometrics systems during the course. This modern way of security is getting into everyday life. Whether in the form of biometric passports or access systems.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
- Student should be familiar with the basics of the 1- and 2-dimensional signal processing.
- Valid schooling of Edict No. 50 (work with electrical devices) is needed.
