description This article introduces a hybrid multi-biometric system incorporating fingerprint, face, and iris recognition to enhance individual authentication. The system addresses limitations of uni-modal approaches by combining multiple biometric modalities, exhibiting superior performance and heightened security in practical scenarios, making it more dependable and resilient for real-world applications. The integration of support vector machine (SVM) and random forest (RF) classifiers, along with optimization techniques like bacterial foraging optimization (BFO) and genetic algorithms (GA), improves efficiency and robustness. Additionally, integrating feature-level fusion and utilizing methods such as Gabor filters for feature extraction enhances overall performance of the model. The system demonstrates superior accuracy and reliability, making it suitable for real-world applications requiring secure and dependable identification solutions.
