Information Technology - Biometric Performance Testing and Reporting - Part 2: Technology Testing and Reporting

This standard specifies methods for performance testing of biometric systems and devices. It constitutes a specialization of a biometric testing framework standard in that it is concerned only with the offline use of stored (i.e., previously captured) biometric samples, and not the interaction of human subjects with a biometric sensor. The standard covers: Comparative or absolute testing of performance of biometric algorithms, components, or systems; Comparison of biometric data sets; Prediction of elements of deployed online performance; Assessment of performance available from complex data samples including repeated sample and multimodal data. This standard does not cover: All aspects of the human-sensor interaction, except as they manifest themselves in the output samples.
