Study on the BeiHang Keystroke Dynamics Database

Abstract

This paper introduces a new BeiHang (BH) Keystroke Dynamics Database for testing and evaluation of biometric approaches. Different from the existing keystroke dynamics researches which solely rely on laboratory experiments, the developed database is collected from a real commercialized system and thus is more comprehensive and more faithful to human behavior. Moreover, our database comes with ready-to-use benchmark results of three keystroke dynamics methods, Nearest Neighbor classifier, Gaussian Model and One-Class Support Vector Machine. Both the database and benchmark results are open to the public and provide a significant experimental platform for international researchers in the keystroke dynamics area.
