In this paper, we propose a novel biometric method based on heart sound signals. The biometric system comprises an electronic stethoscope, a computer equipped with a sound card and the software application. Our approach consists of a robust feature extraction scheme which is based on cepstral analysis with a specified configuration, combined with Gaussian mixture modeling. Experiments have been conducted to determine the relationship between various parameters in our proposed scheme. It has been demonstrated that heart sounds should be processed within segments of 0.5 s and using the full resolution in frequency domain. Also, higher order cepstral coefficients that carry information on the excitation proved to be useful. A preliminary test of 128 heart sounds from 128 participants was collected to evaluate the uniqueness of the heart sounds. The HTK toolkit produces a 99% recognition rate with only one mismatch. Next, a more comprehensive test consisting almost 1000 heart sounds collected from 10 individuals over a period of 2 months yields a promising matching accuracy of 96% using the proposed feature and classification algorithm. A real-time heart sound authentication system is then built and can be used in two modes: to identify a particular individual or to verify an individual's claimed identity.
