Authentication Based on Finger-Writing of a Simple Symbol on a Smartphone

Atsushi Takahashi, Isao Nakanishi · 2018

For personal authentication of smartphone users, a convenient method, e.g., the use of a password that employs several digits or fingerprint authentication, is generally used. However, through these methods, we cannot precisely identify whether the person who poses as the user is actually the genuine one. Therefore, we propose a personal-authentication method based on finger-writing of a simple symbol, which considers both usability and security, and evaluate the verification performance of this system. As a result, the best equal error rate of 10% was achieved.
