Fingerprint identification is based on two basic premises: (i) persistence: the basic characteristics of fingerprints do not change with time; and (ii) individuality: the fingerpr...
We present a novel approach for extraction of minutiaefeatures from fingerprint images. Theproposed approach is based on the use of logical templates for minutiae extraction in th...
The performance of a fingerprint matching system is affected by the nonlinear deformation introduced in the fingerprint impression during image acquisition. This nonlinear deformat...
Dealing with non-linear distortion in fingerprint images is a major difficulty for automated fingerprint verification systems. While this distortion can be a nuisance in minutiae ...
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...
