Abstract
Individual's Identity Authentication depends on physical traits like face, iris, and fingerprint, etc., or behavioral traits like voice and signature. With the rapid advancement in the field of biometrics, multimodal biometric systems are replacing unimodal biometric systems. As the application of molecular biometric system removes certain errors like noisy data, interclass variations, spoof attacks, and unacceptable error rates as compared to unimodal biometric systems. Even the possibilities of multiple scenarios present in multimodal biometric systems are quite helpful for the consolidation of information using different levels of fusion. In this chapter, the authors try to analyze the technological change which is present due to growing field of biometrics with artificial intelligence and undergone a thorough research for multimodal biometric systems for effective authentication purpose. This study is quite helpful for getting different perception for the use of biometrics as a highest level of network security due to the fusion of many different modalities.
