Abstract
Biometric systems are designed to identify a person based
on physiological or behavioral characteristics. In order to
predict the utility of a particular image for identification, there
is an interest in measures to calculate the biometric image
quality. Such measures often assume (implicitly or explicitly)
that human image quality evaluations are a gold standard. In
order to test this assumption, we measured biometric image
quality for face and iris recognition by 8 human volunteers and
from 6 face recognition and 1 iris recognition algorithm.
