Development and Implementation of a Biometric Verification System for E-learning Platforms

We describe a biometric verification system to improve the security and reliability in services offered by e-learning platforms. We developed a prototype in the platform ILIAS to improve its online identification service. We use our extension of VoiceXML called BioVXML [1]. BioVXML is focused on user biometric verification. It is able to handle heterogeneous biometric samples, such as voice samples or frontal face images and takes them into account in order to do a multimodal biometric verification. This prototype is used to acquire a biometric database, the BioDB. This database will serve us as a test environment for the different biometric verification methods.
