Abstract: In the field of wireless multimedia authentication unimodal biometric model is commonly used but it suffers from spoofing and limited accuracy. The present work pro-poses the fusion of features of face and fingerprint recognition system as an Improved Biometric Fusion System (IBFS) leads to improvement in performance. Integrating multiple biometric traits recognition performance is improved and thereby reducing fraudulent access.The paper introduces an IBFS comprising of authentication systems that are Improved Fingerprint Recogni-tion System (IFPRS) and Improved Face Recognition System (IFRS) are introduced. Whale optimization algorithm is used with minutiae feature for IFPRS and Maximally Stable External Regions (MSER) for IFRS. To train the designed IBFS, Pattern net model is used as a classification algorithm. Pattern net works based on processed data set along with SVM to train the IBFS model to achieve better classification accuracy. It is observed that the proposed fusion system exhibited average true positive rate and accuracy of 99.8 percentage and 99.6 percentage, respectively.

Keywords: Biometric fusion; face recognition; fingerprint recognition; feature extraction; feature optimization; classifier
