The problem of fingerprint liveness detection has received an increasing attention in the last decade, as attested by the organisation of three editions of an international competition, named LivDet, dedicated to this challenge. LivDet editions and other works in the literature showed that the performance of current fingerprint liveness detection algorithms is not good enough to allow empowering a...
A spoof attack, a subset of presentation attacks, is the use of an artificial replica of a biometric in an attempt to circumvent a biometric sensor. Liveness detection, or presentation attack detection, distinguishes between live and fake biometric traits and is based on the principle that additional information can be garnered above and beyond the data procured by a standard authentication system...
A fingerprint presentation attacks detector (FPAD) is designed to obtain a certain performance regardless of the targeted user population. However, two recent works on facial traits showed that a PAD system can exploit very useful information from the targeted user population. In this paper, we explored the existence of that kind of information in fingerprints when textural features are adopted. We...
A spoof or fake is a counterfeit biometric that is used in an attempt to circumvent a biometric sensor. Liveness detection distinguishes between live and fake biometric traits. Liveness detection is based on the principle that additional information can be garnered above and beyond the data procured by a standard authentication system, and this additional data can be used to determine if a biometric...
Recent experiments, reported in the third edition of Fingerprint Liveness Detection competition (LivDet 2013), have clearly shown that fingerprint liveness detection is a very difficult and challenging task. Although the number of approaches is large, none of them can be claimed as able to detect liveness of fingerprint traits with an acceptable error rate. In our opinion, in order to investigate...

Liveness detection is based on the principle that additional information can be garnered above and beyond the data procured by a standard verification system, and this additional data can be used to verify if a biometric measure...
“Liveness detection”, a technique used to determine the vitality of a submitted biometric, has been implemented in fingerprint scanners in recent years. The goal for the LivDet 2011 competition is to compare software-based fingerprint liveness detection methodologies (Part 1), as well as fingerprint systems which incorporate liveness detection capabilities (Part 2), using a standardized testing protocol...
Fingerprint liveness detection consists in verifying if an input fingerprint image, acquired by a fingerprint verification system, belongs to a genuine user or is an artificial replica. Although several hardware- and software-based approaches have been proposed so far, this issue still remains unsolved due to the very high difficulty in finding effective features for detecting the fingerprint liveness...
