Contactless palmprint authentication using circular gabor filter and approximated string matching

More and more research have been developed very recently for automatic hand recognition. This paper proposes a new method for contactless hand authentication in complex images. Our system uses skin color and hand shape information for hand detection process. Next, the palm is extracted and characterized by circular Gabor filter. Finally, the palm features are matched by a new normalized approximated string matching. The experimental results present an error
