Biometric identification using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is provided. Embodiments are targeted for biometric applications, where an individual can be identified with a precision of over 99%, using sensed brain signals. In particular, a method is described which can extract unique biomarkers from EEG response signals to classify individuals, also referred to as simple visual reaction task-based EEG biometry (SVRTEB). A subject experiences a simple stimulus or task, and a multi-channel EEG response is recorded. Unique biomarkers are extracted from the recorded EEG response (e.g., as periodogram data points corresponding to different frequencies observed in the brain waves, which can be used to identify a person). A novel signal processing approach uses neural network-based architecture to analyze the EEG response and identify the subject. This signal processing architecture can be readily implemented on hardware and provides high accuracy, precision, and recall.
