Abstract

A lot of recent research activities have been fulfilled  in keystroke and mouse dynamics in the past three decades but the work in touch screen biometric authentication still needs to be explored. The motivation of this paper is that touch dynamics behavioral biometric authentication can be easily deployed along with user normal activities. Behavioral biometric along with machine learning algorithms and risk-assessment techniques can be efficiently and effectively used as an adaptive authentication. With the rapid usage of smart phones and touch screens in other applications, touch dynamics can be an important authentication factor in multi-factor authentication. Though a numerous studies have been done in behavioral human biometric, there is indeed much scope in the area of touch dynamics. The objective of this study is to provide the throughout survey of techniques used in this field along with the advancements for further research work.
