An area of promise for these theories is biome $\#$x0301;trie identification. In this paper, we review the role of sparse representation and CS for efficient biome $\#$x0301;trie identification. Algorithms to perform identification from face and iris data are reviewed. By applying Random Projections it is possible to purposively hide the biome $\#$x0301;trie data within a template. This procedure can be effectively employed for securing and protecting personal biome $\#$x0301;trie data against theft. Some of the most compelling challenges and issues that confront research in biometrics using sparse representations and CS are also addressed.}, keywords = {Biometric identification, Cancelable Biometrics, Compressed sensing, face data, face recognition, iris data, iris recognition, personal biometric data, Random Projections, robust biometrics, sparse representations}, doi = {10.1109/ICARCV.2010.5707955}, author = {Patel, Vishal M. and Chellapa, Rama and Tistarelli,M.} }
