Abstract: Humans have various features that differentiates one person from another which can be used to identify an individual for security purposes. These biometrics can authenticate or verify a person's identity and can be sorted in two classes, physiological and behavioural. In this article, the authors present their results of experimentation on publicly available facial images and the efficiency of a prototype version of SpeechXRays, a multi-modal biometric system that uses audio-visual characteristics for user authentication in eHealth platforms. Using the privacy and security mechanism provided, based on audio and video biometrics, medical personnel are able to be verified and subsequently identified for two different eHealth applications. These verified persons are then able to access control, identification, workforce management or patient record storage. In this work, the authors argue how a biometric identification system can greatly benefit healthcare, due to the increased accuracy of identification procedures.
