Project Description

This is "The Multimedia Signal Processing and Security Lab", short WaveLab, website. We are a research group at the Artificial Intelligence and Human Interfaces (AIHI) Department of the University of Salzburg led by Andreas Uhl. Our research is focused on Visual Data Processing and associated security questions. Most of our work is currently concentrated on Biometrics, Media Forensics and Media Security, Medical Image and Video Analysis, and application oriented fundamental research in digital humanities, individualised aquaculture and sustainable wood industry.
   

Single-sensor Biometric Surveillance Combining Iris and Face (BioSurveillance)

 

Project Description:

BioSurveillance (FIT-IT Trust in IT-Systems project 819382) is a project on applying a multibiometric combination of iris and face recognition technology in unconstrained environments. Surveillance video data is the typical kind of imagery this project is focussing on.
