Abstract—Biometric security systems such as Retina scanner,
fingerprint and face recognition among others are the most
recently developed security systems. The latest systems can be
found in various situations (police checkpoints, airport facilities,
. . . ). As they become widely used and requested, an increasing
number of researchers are working in this field. In this paper,
we propose a new Biometric Recognition method based on
Independent Component Analysis technique ”ICA”.
