Abstract

This paper proposes a method to improve the performance of tri-modal biometric verification using a heterogeneous computing system exploiting the synergy between CPU and GPU. The main objective is to reduce the time required for verification while maintaining the system's accuracy. The design of this system is based on a decision fusion algorithm based on the logical OR connector, enabling the results of the three modalities to be combined. The implementation is being carried out in C# with Visual Studio 2019, using the Task Parallel Library to parallelize tasks on the CPU, and OpenCL.NET to manage processing on the GPU. The tests carried out on a representative sample of 1,000 individuals, show a clear improvement in performance compared with a sequential system. Execution times were significantly reduced, ranging from 0.03 ms to 0.67 ms for data sizes between 50 and 1000. Analysis of the performance gains, based on Amdahl's law, reveals that the proportion of tasks that can be parallelized remains higher in heterogeneous systems than in parallel and sequential systems, even though part of processing remains sequential for large data sizes. This study highlights the ability of heterogeneous computing systems to effectively reduce the verification time of biometric systems while maintaining an optimal balance between processing speed and overall efficiency. The results demonstrate the potential of this approach for advanced biometric applications, particularly in distributed environments.

Abstract

In this article, we explored key concepts related to technology and system efficiency. We have created an innovative biometric system that combines three modalities: fingerprint, facial recognition and voice recognition. This approach guarantees enhanced security and a seamless user experience for access control. We tested our application to obtain the false rejection rate and the false acceptance rate, which gave us the confusion matrix. We then used the multinomial regression method to obtain the various parameter values, which are: FN=0.124, VPP=0.88, Sp=0.88, VPN=0.87, Se=0.87 and F-measure = 0.87 for voice recognition, FN=0.104, VPP=0.90, Sp=0.90, VPN=0.89, Se=0.89 and F-measure = 0.89 for face recognition, FN=0.08, VPP=0. 92, Sp=0.92, VPN=0.91, Se=0.91 and F-measure = 0.91 for fingerprints and FN=0.004, VPP=0.99, Sp=0.99, VPN=0.99, Se=0.99 and F-measure = 0.99 for the global system resulting from the fusion of these three modalities. From this result, we can say that using the global fusion of these three modalities, our system is very efficient compared to separate systems which give an advantage to the fingerprint recognition system followed by facial recognition and finally voice recognition. We recommend further studies to evaluate the performance of our system in real scenarios, using methods such as multinomial regression. This work paves the way for significant advances in the field of biometric systems and methods such as multinomial regression. We hope that these results will inspire further research and practical applications for a connected and secure world.

Abstract

This study focuses on optimizing the performance of a three-modality biometric recognition system (fingerprints, facial and voice recognition) with global decision fusion, designed for access control to secure areas. When the biometric database contains a large volume of information, the verification module's processing time increases considerably due to the complexity of template comparisons. To address this issue, we implemented an optimization strategy based on parallel programming, specifically targeting the intensive processing loops within the verification module. Using Microsoft's Task Parallel Library, we parallelized all critical loops associated with the three biometric modalities. By effectively exploiting for and foreach statements, our parallelized implementation enables optimal distribution of tasks across available processor cores. We validated our approach by conducting repeated experiments on data sets of varying sizes (50 to 600 individuals), with a rigorous analysis of temporal performance. The results show a significant reduction in execution times: for 600 entries, the processing time goes from 1.68 ms in sequential mode to 0.77 ms in parallel mode. These performances were evaluated over several iterations to ensure the statistical reliability of the results, in particular by calculating averages and standard deviations and including error bars in the comparative graphs. The practical implications of this work are significant: the module can be deployed in corporate security systems, airports or banks, while respecting ethical considerations and privacy constraints. Finally, this work paves the way for future extensions, including the integration of other biometric modalities, deployment on distributed clusters or the adoption of more advanced parallelization frameworks.
