生物识别系统通过提取一个人的身体特征中的模式并将其与这些模式的计算机记录进行比较来确认该人的身份。例子包括面部、虹膜或视网膜的扫描;手部几何形状、手掌或手指静脉图案的测量;指纹、耳朵结构、声音模式或代表独特属性的物理人的任何其他特征。所提取的模式与先前注册的模式相匹配，并且在一定的公差内，可以使用确认的匹配来认证个人的身份。在大多数实际系统中，需要一个大型的集中式数据存储库来存储注册的模式，并且通常需要大量的计算能力来处理新模式并将这些模式与存储的数据集进行比较。
Biometric systems confirm a person's identity by extracting and comparing patterns in their physical characteristics against computer records of those patterns. Examples include scans of the face, iris, or retina; measurements of hand geometry, palm or finger vein patterns; fingerprints, ear structure, voice patterns, or any other characteristic of the physical person that represents a unique attribute. The extracted patterns are matched against previously registered patterns, and, within certain tolerances, a confirmed match can be used to authenticate an individual's identity. In most practical systems, there is a need for a large, centralized data repository for storing the registered patterns, and substantial computing power is often required to process new patterns and compare these to the stored data set.
