Abstract: |
An integrated, multisensory recognition (identification and verification) system is described. Acoustic features and visual features are integrated in order to identify people or to verify their identities. The integration of the speaker-identification and visual-features-identification functions improves both performance and reliability in the applications envisaged. Various architectures are described for the implementation both of the integration function and of the speaker-recognition and visual-features-recognition functions.

First Claim:

What is claimed is:
1. A system for recognizing people comprising:
- means for sensing whether a person is to be recognized;
- a first detector subsystem, responsive to said sensing means, including,
- first detector means for detecting first features including static and dynamic data associated with the person to be recognized,
- a first database including prestored static and dynamic data relating to at least one person to be recognized, and
- means for comparing the detected static and dynamic data with the prestored static and dynamic data and obtaining first distance data;
- a second detector subsystem, responsive to said sensing means, including,
- second detector means for detecting second features associated with the person to be recognized,
- a second database including prestored second features relating to at least one person to be recognized, and
- means for comparing the detected second features and the prestored second features and obtaining second distance data; and
- an integration subsystem including means for combining the first distance data and the second distance data resulting in recognition data, and determining whether the recognition data corresponds to a value related to the prestored static and dynamic data and the prestored second features associated with one person.
