National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal
25、with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC
26、have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the jo
27、int technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.

ISO/IEC 19795-4:2008(E) ISO/IEC 2008 All rights reserved viiIntroduction The multi-part biometric data interchange format standard, ISO/IEC 19794, has been developed to foster interoperable exchange of biometric data. By defining open containers for image, signal
31、 and feature data, and constraining some of the properties of the samples, the standards enhance interoperability by requiring implementers to be able to handle a restricted set of all possible biometric samples. Examples of this are the template standards of ISO/IEC 19794-2 and ISO/IEC 19794-8 whic
32、h embed compact processed data from fingerprint images. Only samples of the same format type (several of which can be defined in the same part of ISO/IEC 19794) are intended to be interchangeable. One common assertion prior to SC 37s formulation of data interchange standards was that proprietary tem
33、plates offer greater recognition performance than any likely standard on the grounds that the proprietary instances are the product of processes that embed considerable, private, intellectual property. The question of whether the emerging standards are sufficient then arises: that is, do they code d
34、ata (feature, image, etc.) representations that allow matching with accuracy comparable to that available from the proprietary solutions? A second issue, interoperability, arises in those applications where standardized data are generated and matched by different institutions and systems. If a compa
35、nys feature extraction subsystem processes acquired samples to produce ISO/IEC 19794-x compliant instances, then can other companies comparison subsystems attain performance comparable with that obtained from the originators own comparison subsystem? A further question is then whether a third compan
36、y can successfully recognize enrolment and user samples from two different sources. This part of ISO/IEC 19795 defines tests to specifically address absolute performance, sufficiency, and interoperability available from biometric data formatted to comply with established standards, particularly thos
37、e developed in the various parts of ISO/IEC 19794. However, because this part of ISO/IEC 19795 references interchange formats generically, by referencing only their black box generation and use, it also applies to other open standards. One consequence of this approach is that the success of a test i
38、s predicated on the correctness and appropriateness of lower-level data elements and values, i.e. conformance to the respective standards. Therefore, the approach here is to require conformance testing as an integral part of the test. This is achieved by referencing formal published conformance test
39、s or profiles of standards. For instance, an interoperability test of the ISO/IEC 19794-5 face format might reference an application profile of its Token image, which in turn might rely on ISO/IEC 15444-1 (JPEG 2000 core coding system). This part of ISO/IEC 19795 conceives of the following three kin
40、ds of tests: online: a scenario test in which a volunteer population enrols on suppliers products and subsequently uses suppliers verification or identification implementations to make genuine and impostor attempts; offline: a technology test in which an archived corpus of captured samples, not nece
41、ssarily collected with any intent to simulate the operational conditions of a particular application, is used as input to suppliers enrolment, verification or identification products to make genuine and impostor attempts; hybrid: a test in which the sample corpus is collected online under conditions
42、 which attempt to simulate the operational conditions of a particular application, and is then processed offline. In each case, an interoperability test needs to embed multi-supplier generation, exchange, and comparison of samples of the standard interchange format. Online collection from a live pop
43、ulation is appropriate when the biometric capture device, and/or the subject interaction with the biometric capture device, is considered to have a material effect on the interoperable performance of the intended application. An offline test is appropriate when a representative corpus of samples is
44、already available (for example passport photographs to be converted into Token instances of ISO/IEC 19794-5). An offline test may be appropriate when the collection of representative data is neither practical nor necessary to determine the interoperable performance of specific subsystems, such as fe
45、ature extraction and/or comparison. ISO/IEC 19795-4:2008(E) viii ISO/IEC 2008 All rights reservedIn all cases, an interoperability test must enrol subjects on one or more products and verify or identify on one or more others. This should involve subjects making transactions as themselves (genuine tr
46、ials) and as one or more other people (impostor trials). If a large enough population is available, a disjoint impostor population can be used. Since online tests can become onerous on the test population when many products and impostor attempts are needed, hybrid and offline testing allow execution
47、 of many zero-effort impostor attempts. In an interoperability performance test, J generators of standardized biometric data blocks (BDBs) are applied to the samples assembled as part of a hybrid or offline test. By applying K comparison subsystems to the standard BDBs, up to KJ2verification or iden
48、tification trials are conducted, each following ISO/IEC 19795-2. The BDB may be an image or signal, or a standardized template. Optional encodings allowed by the standard interchange format should be fully specified. This might be achieved by normatively referencing one of the ISO/IEC 24713-x profil
49、es. If the format in question is an image, a subsequent internal (usually proprietary) template would be used, but its existence here is subsumed by the notion of a black-box comparison of two instances of the given format. The test advanced by this part of ISO/IEC 19795 demarcates the generic aspects of interoperability from the meaning associated with each particular biometric format of I
