Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advancements in sensor technology and computational power have created opportunites to build systems that mimic some human abilities. Biometric technology has immensely benefited from these developments. There have been several applications in areas, such as border control, banking, access control, etc., that use biometric modalities, such as the iris, face, fingerprint, palm print, ear, etc. The symmetrical nature of many biometric features has been exploited in some existing works to improve the accuracy of biometric systems. This gives research directions for using inner information of the ears in recognition systems. This Special Issue focuses on the application of symmetry-based biometric solutions. It encourages researchers to submit state-of-the-art theoretical and/or application-based findings, with the use of symmetry to create new biometric-based systems. as well as models or/and improve existing ones. You are welcome to submit original research or review articles.
