Since the beginning of the new millennium, the electrocardiogram (ECG) has been studied as a biometric trait for security systems and other applications. Recently, with devices such as smartphones and tablets, the acquisition of ECG signal in the off-the-person category has made this biometric signal suitable for real scenarios. In this paper, we introduce the usage of deep learning techniques, specifically convolutional networks, for extracting useful representation for heart biometrics recognition. Particularly, we investigate the learning of feature representations for heart biometrics through two sources: on the raw heartbeat signal and on the heartbeat spectrogram. We also introduce heartbeat data augmentation techniques, which are very important to generalization in the context of deep learning approaches. Using the same experimental setup for six methods in the literature, we show that our proposal achieves state-of-the-art results in the two off-the-person publicly available databases.
