Abstract: This research presents an improved biometric fusion system (IBFS) that integrates fingerprint and face as a subsystem. Two authentication systems, namely, Improved Fingerprint Recognition System (IFPRS) and Improved Face Recognition System (IFRS), are introduced respectively. For both, Atmospheric Light Adjustment (ALA) algorithm is used as an image quality enhancement technique for the improvement in visualization of acquired fingerprint and face data. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used as an optimization algorithm with minutiae feature for IFPRS and Speed Up Robust Feature (SURF) for IFRS. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is used as a classifier for IBFS. For the demonstration of the results, quality based parameters are computed, and in the end, a comparison is drawn to depict the efficiency of the work.The optimization techniques such as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and BFO (Bacterial Foraging Optimization) has been considered to determine the effectiveness of the proposed model.The experimental results consider different parameters such as False Acceptance Rate (FAR), False Rejection Ratio (FRR), Accuracy and Execution time which shows that performance of the proposed model better than the other optimization models. In addition, to enhance robustness of the proposed structure, the results further compared with conventional technique which shows that accuracy has been improved by 2%.
