FVC-onGoing: on-line evaluation of fingerprint recognition algorithms

FVC-onGoing is a web-based automated evaluation system for fingerprint recognition algorithms. Tests are carried out on a set of sequestered datasets and results are reported on-line by using well known performance indicators and metrics.

The aim is to track the advances in fingerprint recognition technologies, through continuously updated independent testing and reporting of performances on given benchmarks. The algorithms are evaluated using strongly supervised approaches to maximize trustworthiness.

FVC-onGoing is the evolution of FVC: the international Fingerprint Verification Competitions organized in 2000, 2002, 2004, and 2006.

Submission and Publication policy

Interested companies, academic research groups, and independent developers can register for an account on this web site and submit an algorithm to a given benchmark. The system will test the algorithm and the participant will see the results in its private area. No other use of the submitted algorithm will be made. Then the participant may decide to publish the results of its algorithm on the FVC-onGoing public result section, where they will be visible to any other web user.

Terms and Conditions

All publications and works that cite FVC-onGoing must reference the following paper:
