Abstract

At the present time, mobile devices such as tablet-type PCs and smart phones have widely penetrated into our daily lives. Therefore, an authentication method that prevents shoulder surfing is needed. We are investigating a new user authentication method for mobile devices that uses surface electromyogram (s-EMG) signals, not screen touching. The s-EMG signals, which are generated by the electrical activity of muscle fibers during contraction, are detected over the skin surface. Muscle movement can be differentiated by analyzing the s-EMG. We carried out a series of experiments to investigate the prospect of an authentication method using s-EMGs in the past. We also proposed the authentication method using the combination of gesture as password. The method compares the myoelectric waveforms generated and to judge whether both are the same by Support Vector Machine(SVM). The judge needs more suitable extraction of features of myoelectric waveforms. In this paper, we investigate the selection of the most appropriate features for user authentication system using surface electromyogram signals.
