Analysis of Keystroke Dynamics for the Generation of Synthetic Datasets

Biometrics is an emerging technology more and more present in our daily life. However, building biometric systems requires a large amount of data that may be difficult to collect. Collecting such sensitive data is also very time consuming and constrained, s.a. GDPR legislation. In the case of keystroke dynamics, existing databases have less than 200 users. For these reasons, we aim at generating a keystroke dynamics synthetic dataset. This paper presents the generation of keystroke data from known users as a first step towards the generation of synthetic datasets, and could also be used to impersonate users' identity.
