(ii) Enrollment: The enrollment part of the Algorithm stage essentially works as follows. One or more biometric samples per person are used to compute a representative "model" for that person, which essentially represents that person's identity. To determine which of a person's biometric samples should be used to generate their model, we query the protocol of our input biometric database. The model is then calculated using the corresponding biometric features extracted in the Feature Extraction stage (or, optionally, our "projected" features).

(iii) Scoring: The scoring part of the Algorithm stage essentially works as follows. Each model is associated with a number of probes, so we first query the input biometric database to determine which biometric samples should be used as the probes for each model. Every model is then compared to its associated probes (some of which come from the same person, and some of which come from different people), and a score is calculated for each comparison. The score describes the similarity between the model and the probe (higher scores indicate greater similarity); for example, it can be computed as a negative distance between the model and probe features. Ideally, if the model and probe come from the same biometric (e.g., two images of the same finger), they should be very similar, and if they come from different sources (e.g., two images of different fingers) then their similarity should be low.

Once a decision has been made, we can quantify the overall performance of the particular biometric recognition system in terms of common metrics like the False Match Rate (FMR), False Non Match Rate (FNMR), and Equal Error Rate (EER) for verification, and Identification Rate (IR) for identification. We can also view a visual representation of the performance in terms of plots like the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) and Detection Error Trade-off (DET) for verification, Cumulative Match Characteristics (CMC) for closed-set identification, and Detection and Identification Rate (DIR) for open-set identification.
