Abstract
The current document discloses an ear-biometrics-based authentication and identification system that includes an ear-image-capture subsystem that generates an image of a user's ear, a template-generation subsystem that extracts features from the generated image to generate a template that is stored in an electronic memory, and a template-comparison subsystem that compares the generated template to previously generated and stored templates in order to identifier the user.
