Abstract

In this paper a new “Fuzzy Vault” scheme is proposed, which improves the False Rejection Rate of the original scheme. When constructing the vault of the original scheme there was a need to trim the biometric data, which is an information loss and affects the performance of the system. This was resolved in the suggested version of this construction. The schemes were implemented for fingerprint data, and the comparisons are brought in the last section of this paper.
