Applying the “<strong>Zoo</strong>” to <strong>System</strong> Design<br />

– If the ‘zoo’ concept really applies to fingerprints, then the ROC<br />

curves for various subpopulations are not identical. For example,<br />

some hypothetical algorithm may perform as shown below.<br />

W/L<br />

Sheep <strong>and</strong> Goats – 90% of population<br />

FNMR = 0.001 at FMR of 0.000001<br />

Wolves <strong>and</strong> Lambs – 10%<br />

FNMR=0.2 at FMR of 0.001<br />
