Abstract

Biometrics is the field that differentiates among various people based on their unique biological and physiological patterns such as retina, finger prints, DNA and keyboard typing patterns to name a few. Keystroke Dynamics is a physiological biometric that measures the unique typing rhythm and cadence of a computer keyboard user. This paper presents a Data Mining-based Keystroke Dynamics application for identity verification, and it reports the results of experiments comparing different approaches to Keystroke Dynamics. The methods compared were Decision Trees, a Na茂ve Bayesian Classifier, Memory Based Learning, and statistics-based Keystroke Dynamics.
