Ridge Enhancement in Fingerprint Images Using Oriented Diffusion
The extraction of “Level 2” detail — ridge terminations, ridge bifurcations, bridges etc. — from digitised images of fingerprints requires an accurate segmentation of the...

On Ridges and Valleys
Ridges and valleys are earth’s relief structures. They can have an imaging counterpart provided we model a digital image as a landscape by considering grey level values as heigh...

Enhancing Transparent Skin Surfaces with Ridge and Valley Lines
There are many applications that can benefit from the simultaneous display of multiple layers of data. The objective in these cases is to render the layered surfaces in a such way...

A Model-Based Approach for Compression of Fingerprint Images
We proposea new ngerprint imagecompressionscheme based on the hybrid model of image. Our scheme uses the essential steps of a typical automated ngerprint identi cation system (AFI...

Logical Templates for Feature Extraction in Fingerprint Images
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...
