Practical Work

In the practical hands-on session, we will enable participants to take part in the complete process of creating an authentication system using behavioral biometrics. The process requires three steps: i) data elicitation, ii) data exploration and visualization, and iii) the creation of an authentication system with the evaluation through key metrics.

For this purpose, we use head-mounted displays and a virtual reality application, which we provide and which makes the data recorded in the course accessible in real-time for all other participants. Providing the data is, of course, a voluntary action to participate in. The head-mounted displays will be shared in small groups of participants (approx. 3±1 person). Additionally, we will provide a backup dataset.

The data collected in this way will be used in the next step by the participants to develop an authentication mechanism. In this process, Python will be used, including the common stack of scientific software libraries. We guide this process by supporting the participants and providing appropriate templates to embed their code.
