Introduction

Quality metrics in biometrics are of great value. This document aims to provide a sample quality metric for the biometrics field.

The quality score measurement framework defines the expression, interpretation and exchange methods of quality scores, providing an objective and this document is a quantitative basis for ISO/IEC 19794 (all parts), ISO/IEC 39794 (all parts) and ISO/IEC 19784-1.

The standard provides specifications and guidance for the representation and exchange of quality block data of biometric samples.

GB/T 33767 "Information Technology Biometric Sample Quality" is intended to consist of 15 parts.

This document also establishes an evaluation framework designed to facilitate the use of scoring tools that can not only encourage technological innovation but also Helps to enhance the overall effectiveness of the biometric recognition system. Although the quality assessment and scoring tools proposed in GB/T 33767 are usually optional this flexibility ensures the broad applicability of the standard while allowing for specific Appropriately perform the different biometric modes specified in ISO/IEC 19794 (all parts) and ISO/IEC 39794 (all parts) Adjustment.

This document emphasizes the connection between quality metrics and biometric samples, which is an important component of quality metric standardization.

The quality fields specified in the chapter are incorporated into the biometric data exchange format, and the CBEFF (Common Biometric Exchange Format Framework) data the use of the header further enriches the expression of quality metrics, namely through CBEFF_BDB_quality (biometric data block quality) Represents a quality metric.

The use of biometric sample quality metrics has many benefits. For example, providing real-time quality feedback during the enrollment phase can improve biometric in addition, quality metrics can also be combined with other samples or reference data during the comparison process to achieve data fusion.

Through the application of this document, the biometric recognition system Designers and users of systems will be able to more effectively utilize quality metrics to analyze systems, identify potential problems, and discover Opportunities to improve performance.
