Abstract
Unlock patterns are used for authentication in mobile smart devices, yet they are vulnerable to attacks, since only the pattern draw is required. Extra biometric data of the user while drawing the unlock pattern passwords may strengthen the authentication, such as the speed of drawing, the pressure of the finger on the touch screen. Such biometric modality is referred to as behavioral biometrics. Besides, voice is also a behavioral biometric modality, as well as a physiological one. Hence, statistical models such as Gaussian mixture models (GMM) with universal background modeling (UBM) are widely used in speaker verification systems. In this work, we propose to apply and adapt a framework usually dedicated to speaker verification to recognize the unlock patterns based on users' behavior. We evaluate the performance using equal error rate for different combinations of features and varying number of mixtures. As a result of the combination of features, an equal error rate as low as 9.25% on average is obtained, which is promising for a preliminary study on GMM-UBM applied to unlock pattern based biometric recognition.
