Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
This study presents a novel driver authentication system utilizing electrocardiogram (ECG) signals collected through dry electrodes embedded in the steering wheel. Traditional biometric authentication methods are sensitive to environmental changes and vulnerable to replication, but this study addresses these issues by leveraging the unique characteristics and forgery resistance of ECG signals. The proposed system is designed using autocorrelation profiles (ACPs) and a convolutional neural network and is optimized for real-time processing even in constrained hardware environments. Additionally, advanced signal processing algorithms were applied to refine the ECG data and minimize noise in driving environments. The system's performance was evaluated using a public dataset of 154 participants and a real-world dataset of 10 participants, achieving F1-Scores of 96.8% and 96.02%, respectively. Furthermore, an ablation study was conducted to analyze the importance of components such as ACPs, normalization, and filtering. When all components were removed, the F1-Score decreased to 60.1%, demonstrating the critical role of each component. These findings highlight the potential of the proposed system to deliver high accuracy and efficiency not only in vehicle environments but also in various security applications.
