This document discusses biometric recognition for multi-factor authentication. It begins by defining key terms like biometric recognition, verification, identification, and multi-factor authentication. It then discusses some of the challenges with biometric recognition, like spoofing remaining too easy for modalities like face unlock. The document compares the accuracy of different biometric modalities like iris, face, fingerprint, and discusses ongoing work to improve anti-spoofing detection. It also covers concepts like FAR, FRR, and probabilistic nature of biometric matching. The goal is to understand how to best implement biometric recognition for authentication and what the future may hold for the technology.
