—Most fingerprint-based biometric systems store the minutiae template of a user in the database. It has been traditionally assumed that the minutiae template of a user does not r...
Minutiae-based representation is the most widely adopted fingerprint representation scheme. The compactness of minutiae template has created an impression that the minutiae templa...
In biometric identification, a fingerprint is typically represented as a set of minutiae which are 2D points. A method [4] to protect the fingerprint template hides the minutiae b...
—Biometrics-based authentication systems offer obvious usability advantages over traditional password and token-based authentication schemes. However, biometrics raises several p...
