Photo-plethysmograph (PPG) biometric identifier for electronic personal records

我们建议开发一种新颖而全面的方法和架构，用于医疗保健、银行和政府等不同部门的安全和隐私保护数据管理。建议的方法利用并建立在最近出现的照片描记(PPG)生物识别技术作为一种有前途的用户识别技术。*预计拟议的研究将推动开发新的模式识别和机器学习算法，以设计健壮的PPG生物特征签名，并满足其他生物特征模式的标准，如指纹，用于现实世界的应用。这项研究的成果将是一个实用的、面向隐私的、有效的安全系统，可以直接应用于保护许多应用领域的个人信息记录。*所提出的框架构成了一个简单、廉价和有效的解决方案，它利用一种新型的生物特征加密系统来提供一种现实可行的方法来保护敏感的个人信息。拟议的项目将通过为相同数据和其他个人数据提供有效的数据安全和隐私保护，充分发挥PPG数据的潜力，这些数据通常由许多便携式设备收集，用于健康监测。*

We propose to develop a novel and comprehensive methodology and architecture for secure and privacy protective data management in a variety of sectors such as healthcare, banking and government. The proposed approach leverages and builds upon the recent emergence of Photo-Plethysmography (PPG) biometrics as a promising technology for user recognition. The proposal addresses the need for secure communication and authentication of personal information which at the same time is characterized by enhanced privacy and confidentiality.****It is expected that the proposed research will drive development of novel pattern recognition and machine learning algorithms to design robust PPG biometric signatures and meet the standards led by other biometric modalities, such as the fingerprint, for the real world applications. The outcome of this research will be a practical, privacy oriented and effective security system that can be directly applied in securing personal information records in many application sectors.****The proposed framework constitutes a simple, inexpensive and effective solution that utilizes a novel biometric crypto-system to provide a realistic and feasible way to secure sensitive personal information. The proposed project will realize the full potential of the PPG data which are routinely collected by numerous portable devices for health monitoring by offering effective data security and privacy protection for that same data and other personal data.********
