This paper investigates the feasibility of person identification based on feature points extracted from palmprint images. Our approach first extracts a set of feature points along...
Fingerprint matching is affected by the nonlinear distortion introduced in fingerprint impressions during the image acquisition process. This nonlinear deformation causes finger...
A novel shape descriptor is introduced. It groups pairs of points that share a geometrical property that is based on their mutual symmetry. The descriptor is visualized as a diagon...
Biometric based authentication can provide strong security guarantee about the identity of users. Security of biometric data is particularly important as compromise of the data wil...
The performance of an automatic fingerprint authentication system relies heavily on the quality of the captured fingerprint images. In this paper, two new quality indices for fi...
