Statistical independence of ECG for biometric authentication

作者:

Highlights:

• Derived an expression that estimates the false resemblance of two ECG samples.

• Three classes of features such as interval, amplitude and angle are used.

• The cumulative probability of false ECG resemblance with 14 features is reported as 1.3×10−20.

• Compared empirical and theoretical performance of ECG independence.

• Successfully prove the admissibility of ECG to use as biometrics with scientific evidence.
