    The main objective of the project is to increase the recognition rate by establishing a multimodal biometric recognition system that uses two di_erent biometric characteristics, as bio-signals. Today, institutions use biometric recognition systems quite often to provide security for many areas such as information security and physical security. The importance of these systems increases day by day in the direction of technological development and increasing demand. Recognition systems based on biometric characteristics are more reliable, because of the possibility of forgetting or losing knowledge in the recognition systems based on knowledge (eg: password) and the possibility of being stolen or guessed by third persons in the biometric recognition based on possessed (eg: card). However, the fraud techniques are also developing in the direction of technological developments and biometric characteristics cannot be renewed in case of imitation, hence the use of multiple biometrics recognition system may be a solution to this problem. At the same time, the use of multiple biometrics increases in the security of systems. In this thesis, a biometric recognition system, which uses the lectrocardiogram (ECG) and speech signals of the person, was created. Since there was not enough time and possibility, an arti_cial database was generated with obtaining these signals from various sources. First, the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database was used for ECG signals. This database consists of 48 ECG signals, which belong to 22 females and 26 males. In ccordance with this database, a database was created for the speech signals, which were obtained from the website, given in [1]. The features of the biometric signals were extracted by AC / DCT (Autocorrelation/ Discrete Cosine Transform) method for ECG signals and by Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coe_cients (MFCCs) method for speech signals. The data, which were obtained from the feature extraction, were then classi_ed by the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) method. The scores, which were obtained from the classi_cation process, were fused as a single individual's data, and the decision-making step was passed. Recognition rates were obtained in the decision making step. The recognition rate for the ECG signal was %87.50 and 42 persons were matched correctly. The recognition rate for 2 seconds speech signals was %58.33 and 28 persons were matched correctly. Normalization was applied before the fusion of these two datasets. The recognition rate after the fusion was %70.83 and 34 persons were matched correctly. However, when the recognition rates are considered, it has been observed that the recognition rate, which obtained after the fusion, is lower than recognition rate of the ECG signals. Therefore, instead of 2 seconds speech signals, 10 seconds speech signals were used. In this case, the recognition rate of the speech signals was %97.9 and 47 persons were matched correctly. Then, normalization was applied again and two datasets were fused. After the fusion, the rate of recognition reached %95.8 and 46 persons were matched correctly.

    Biometric identification using fingertip electrocardiogram signals
    (Springer London Ltd, 2018-07) Güven, Gökhan; Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit
    In this research work, we present a newly fingertip electrocardiogram (ECG) data acquisition device capable of recording the lead-1 ECG signal through the right- and left-hand thumb fingers. The proposed device is high-sensitive, dry-contact, portable, user-friendly, inexpensive, and does not require using conventional components which are cumbersome and irritating such as wet adhesive Ag/AgCl electrodes. One of the other advantages of this device is to make it possible to record and use the lead-1 ECG signal easily in any condition and anywhere incorporating with any platform to use for advanced applications such as biometric recognition and clinical diagnostics. Furthermore, we proposed a biometric identification method based on combining autocorrelation and discrete cosine transform-based features, cepstral features, and QRS beat information. The proposed method was evaluated on three fingertip ECG signal databases recorded by utilizing the proposed device. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed biometric identification method achieves person recognition rate values of 100% (30 out of 30), 100% (45 out of 45), and 98.33% (59 out of 60) for 30, 45, and 60 subjects, respectively.

    An efficient ECG data compression technique based on predefined signature and envelope vector banks
    (IEEE, 2005) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this paper, a new method to compress ElectroCardioGram (ECG) Signal by means of "Predefined Signature and Envelope Vector Banks-PSEVB" is presented. In this work, on a frame basis, any ECG signal is modeled by multiplying three parameters as called the Predefined Signature Vector, Predefined Envelope Vector, and Frame-Scaling Coefficient. It has been demonstrated that the predefined signature vectors and predefined envelope vectors constitute a "PSEVB" to describe any measured ECG signal. In this case, ECG signal for each frame is described in terms of the two indices "R" and "K" of PSEVB and the frame-scaling coefficient. The new compression method achieve good compression ratios with low level reconstruction error while preserving diagnostic information in the reconstructed ECG signal. Furthermore, once PSEVB are stored on each communication node, transmission of ECG signals reduces to the transmission of indexes "R" and "K" of PSEVB and the frame-scaling coefficient which also result in considerable saving in the transmission band.

    A novel hybrid electrocardiogram signal compression algorithm with low bit-rate
    (Springer, 2010) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this paper, a novel hybrid Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal compression algorithm based on the generation process of the Variable-Length Classified Signature and Envelope Vector Sets (VL-CSEVS) is proposed. Assessment results reveal that the proposed algorithm achieves high compression ratios with low level reconstruction error while preserving diagnostic information in the reconstructed ECG signal. The proposed algorithm also slightly outperforms others for the same test dataset.
