Establishes a mechanism for measuring the core algorithmic capabilities of biometric comparison algorithms running on ISO/IEC 7816 integrated circuit cards. Specifically, the standard instantiates a mechanism for on-card biometric comparison testing; standardizes procedures for the measurement of the accuracy of on-card biometric comparison implementations running on object-based, test-specific sample cards; standardizes procedures for the measurement of durations of the various operations; and gives examples for matching ISO/IEC 19794-2:2005 compact card minutiae templates.
