Biometrics

Behavioural biometric systems based on typing errors rely on the natural tendency of people to make characteristic mistakes while …

Automatic spellcheckers silently erase the very signal that typing-error biometric systems rely on. We benchmarked how bad the damage is — and what it means for system design.

We present a user authentication and identification system that leverages behavioural biometrics derived from typing errors. The system …

People make characteristic mistakes when they type. Can those mistakes serve as a biometric signature for authentication? This project built — and rigorously evaluated — a system that answers yes.
