Human Identity and Understanding of Person Behavior using Smartphone Devices

Summary

Virtual applications in mobile platforms is one of the most important and ever growing fields in AI, where ubiquitous and real-time person authentication has become critical after the breakthrough of all kind of services via mobile devices. In this context, biometric technologies hold a great promise to provide reliable and robust user authentication and behaviour understanding, using the many signals available from the sensors embedded. Accordingly, the goal is the development of new AI solutions for human identity and understanding of person behavior using smartphone devices.

Findings will enable increased security and enhanced user experience in the exploding smartphone market. The project also aims a new cooperation between the Swedish academia and a European SME that provides smartphone-based biometrics AI solutions (FacePhi), in the context of a wider effort to establish a consortium for an international funding application (to EU H2020, or other). This project will also increase the understanding of issues, challenges and constraints associated with market implementations of biometric solutions.
