18、in the United States of America. Members of INCITS are drawn from Govern-ment, Corporations, Academia, and other organizations with a material interest in thework of INCITS and its Technical Committees. INCITS does not restrict membershipand attracts participants in its technical work from 13 differ

19、ent countries, and oper-ates under the rules of the American National Standards Institute.In the field of Biometrics, INCITS has established the Technical Committee M1. Stan-dards developed by this Technical Committee have reached consensus throughoutthe development process and have been thoroughly

20、reviewed through several publicreview processes. In addition, the INCITS Executive Board and the ANSI Board ofStandards Review have approved this American National Standard for publication asan INCITS Standard.This standard contains seven annexes. Annexes A, B, C, and E are normative andare consider

21、ed part of this standard. Annexes D, F, and G are informative and arenot considered part of this standard.Requests for interpretation, suggestions for improvement or addenda, or defect re-ports are welcome. They should be sent to InterNational Committee for InformationTechnology Standards (INCITS),

Jim Hughes Dick Brackney (Alt.)John Calhoun (Alt.)National Institute of Standards it specifies data element and abstract value definitions that may be used in specifying a

27、 particular SBH format specification (called a “patron format”). CBEFF thus enables the definition of SBH formats and contents that are “tuned” to their intended environment (called “the Domain of Use” or “DOU” by CBEFF). INCITS 398-2008 specifies two patron formats in its annexes, and documents, in

28、 additional annexes, several patron formats that have been standardized and published by various organizations. CBEFF provides a process for new patron formats to be standardized. End users of biometric systems desire to use these patron formats to ensure that BIRs of one biometric system can be int

29、erchanged with other biometric systems with a minimum of effort. In order to achieve this, it is critical that implementations claiming conformance to a particular patron format actually are conformant, and thus there is a need for conformance testing standards for each of the patron format specific

30、ations, in order to provide a reasonable degree of assurance that a conformance claim has validity. In fact, no test can be absolutely comprehensive and prove that a given implementation is conformant under all possible circumstances, especially when there are optional data elements of the patron fo

31、rmat. A well-designed conformance test can, however, test all of the most likely sources of problems and ensure that the implementation under test conforms under a reasonable set of circumstances, giving assurance, but not a guarantee, of conformance. INCITS 473-2011 2 There are many different types

32、 of conformance testing that may be appropriate for the various patron format specifications. Some of them are highly specific to each patron format but some of them have common elements across all of the formats. Therefore, the body of this standard describes the different types of conformance test

33、ing. It then goes on to provide details of the common elements for defining test assertions for Level 1 and Level 2 testing, as they are defined in Clause 5, which have many similarities among different patron format specifications. Finally, it provides guidelines for conducting the tests and report

34、ing the results of the tests. Test assertions for patron formats A, C, and F specified in INCITS 398-2008 as well as test assertions for patron format D specified in the same standard (for applications other than MRTD and other ICAO applications) are included in four normative annexes (test assertio

35、ns). An informative annex contains test cases for patron formats A, C, and F specified in INCITS 398-2008 as well as test cases for the optional fields of patron format D specified in the same standard. One additional annex includes references to tests specified by the organization that developed th

36、e NIST PIV patron format (Annex E of INCITS 398-2008). ANSI/INCITS standard, INCITS 423, Information Technology Conformance Testing Methodology Standard for Biometric Data Interchange Format Standards, defines testing techniques and requirements for conformance of selected standardized BDB structure

37、s; that standard specifically excludes testing of full CBEFF BIRs and patron formats from its scope, although it assumes that complete BIRs are part of the implementation under test. This standard defines techniques and requirements for testing the conformance of the SBH portion of a BIR to its patr

38、on format specification, the consistency of the BIR structure and any required sequence of SBH fields as the patron format may require. Specification of BDB and SB format conformance testing methodologies is not part of this standard. INCITS 473-2011 3 1 Scope This standard specifies the concepts, t

39、est types and a conformance testing methodology to test conformance of CBEFF Biometric Information Records (BIR) claiming to be conformant to patron formats A, the BioAPI BIR or the NIST/ITL Type 99 data record specified in INCITS 398-2008 annexes as well as the LDS patron format for applications ot

40、her than MRTD and other ICAO applications. The testing methodology specifies testing of the consistency of the BIR structure and any required sequence of SBH fields that may be specified by the patron formats. Conformance testing methodologies for the LDS patron format (for MRTD and other ICAO appli

41、cations), the PIV patron format documented in INCITS 398-2008 as well as conformance testing methodologies for CBEFF BDB and SB formats are not part of this standard. 2 Conformance Biometric patron format conformance tests that claim conformance to this standard shall satisfy the normative requireme

42、nts specified in Clause 5. Tests shall use the assertion types defined in Clause 6 together with the specific assertions specified in the normative annexes of this standard corresponding to the patron format being tested (patron formats A, C, or F specified in INCITS 398-2008 or patron format D of I

43、NCITS 398-2008 for applications other than MRTD and other ICAO applications). BIR implementations of CBEFF patron format A, C, or F specified in an annex of INCITS 398-2008 that have been tested in accordance with the methodology specified in this standard shall be able to claim conformance only to

44、those requirements specified in that CBEFF patron format. This also applies to patron format D of INCITS 398-2008 for applications other than MRTD and other ICAO applications. 3 Normative References The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisio
