Abstract: Developing a robust authentication and identification method becomes an urgent demand to protect the integrity of devices data. Although the use of passwords provides an acceptable control and authentication, it has shown much weakness in terms of speed and integrity, which make biometrics the ideal authentication solution. As a result, electrocardiogram (ECG) signals have received a great attention in most authentication systems due to the individualized nature of the ECG signals that make them difficult to counterfeit and ubiquitous. In this paper, we propose a new model for ECG verification using multi-domain features coupled with a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM). Two types of features are investigated to find the best set of features to individual from ECG signals. Time domain and frequency domain features based on optimized Triple Band filter bank are extracted from ECG signals. The extracted features are investigated to figure out the best relevant features and remove the redundant ones. The selected features are fed to three classifiers, including Least Square Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM), K-means, and K-nearest. The obtained results have shown that our ECG biometric authentication system outperforms existing methods. The proposed model obtained an average of accuracy of 88%, 95% with time and frequency features, respectively, while it recorded 99% when a combination of time and frequency features are used to classify ECG signals. A public dataset is used to assess the proposed model.
