PR Newswire (US)
WALL, N.J., March 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BIO-key
International, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: BKYI) , a leader in
finger-based biometric identification solutions, today announced
that in the recent test results published by the National Institute
of Standards and Technology (NIST), BIO-key's accuracy improved by
a remarkable 23% on the DHS2 Dataset. The DHS2 Dataset is
considered to be the most difficult dataset tested by the NIST
Proprietary Template tests (PFT). (Logo:

to Michael DePasquale, BIO-key Chief Executive Officer, "These
results are significant as they clearly reinforce our continued
position as a market leader and validate our efforts to ensure the
highest accuracy possible. These results reinforce why BIO-key was
selected as the fusion partner for the FBI Next Generation IAFIS
project." This NIST PFT test is a rigorous measure of an
algorithm's inherent accuracy. It exercises four different datasets
of fingerprint images from various real-life government
applications, such as Department of Homeland Security. The
aforementioned datasets are large enough to provide realistic
independent vendor results, given how that data was captured, the
capture device used as well as the users being enrolled. The main
result secured from these evaluations is an estimate of how well
commercial products performed one-to-one matching for verification
over a range of applications. "For some of the datasets used in the
NIST testing there is little variation in the performance of the
tested algorithms. These variations are in the thousandths of a
point to differentiate vendors," noted Mira LaCous, Vice President
Technology and Development at BIO-key. "The DHS2 dataset, which is
the most challenging of the four tested, ranks BIO-key as one of
the top three providers worldwide. Also when comparing the simple
average of the four datasets, for the Table 1 results where NIST
sets the threshold at an FAR of .0001, BIO-key ranks again among
the top three providers worldwide," she continued. NIST conducts
this ongoing public testing program for fingerprint algorithms
using datasets collected by the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security and U.S. Department of State. The results are available
for viewing at http://fingerprint.nist.gov/SDK/ under "Updated
Tables and Plots (February 26, 2010)." About BIO-key BIO-key
