CER: Crossover Error Rate
Crossover Error Rate (CER) is a comparison metric for different biometric devices and technologies. It is the error rate at which the false acceptance rate (FAR) equals the false rejection rate (FRR). As an identification device becomes more sensitive or accurate, its FAR decreases while its FRR increases. The CER is the point at which these two rates are equal, or cross over.
