The interest aroused by fingerprint-based biometric systems significantly grown in the last decade. Market estimates show that finger-scan continues to be the leading biometric technology in terms of market share, commanding nearly 50% of non-AFIS biometric revenue. The surge in demand for robust algorithms in many application fields and the growing of activities in this topic, both from academia and industries, require a great attention to build reliable benchmarks for comparing and assessing developments in fingerprint verification. This chapter is devoted to describe the attempts made in the FVC Competition towards establishing a common technology evaluation methodology. The protocol, the fingerprint database collection and the results of the FVC2000 competition are described in detail. The interest aroused by FVC2000 induced some improvements in organizing the FVC2002 event, which are briefly here summarized.

Abstract
The interest aroused by fingerprint-based biometric systems significantly grown in the last decade. Market estimates show that finger-scan continues to be the leading biometric technology in terms of market share, commanding nearly 50% of non-AFIS biometric revenue. The surge in demand for robust algorithms in many application fields and the growing of activities in this topic, both from academia and industries, require a great attention to build reliable benchmarks for comparing and assessing developments in fingerprint verification. This chapter is devoted to describe the attempts made in the FVC Competition towards establishing a common technology evaluation methodology. The protocol, the fingerprint database collection and the results of the FVC2000 competition are described in detail. The interest aroused by FVC2000 induced some improvements in organizing the FVC2002 event, which are briefly here summarized.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
