Explanation

Biometric authentication can be classified into two categories: biometric verification and biometric identification. In the verification scheme, a user claims his/her ID and presents a biometric sample. Then, the system matches the presented biometric sample against the biometric template which is corresponding to the claimed ID (i.e., 1:1 matching). After 1:1 matching, the system decides whether the user is genuine or not.
