Abstract

Biohashing is a promising cancellable biometrics method. However, it suffers from a problem known as ‘stolen token scenario’. The performance of the biometric system drops significantly if the Biohashing private token is stolen. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a new method termed as Most Intensive Histogram Block Location (MIBL) to extract additional information of the p-th best gradient magnitude. Experimental analysis shows that the proposed method is able to solve the stolen token problem with error equal rates as low as 1.46% and 7.27% when the stolen token scenario occurred for both FVC2002 DB1 and DB2 respectively.
