Rank-level Fusion of Multispectral Palmprints
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an approach for the personal authentication using rank-level fusion of multispectral palmprints, instead of using multiple biometric modalities and multiple matchers. The rank level fusion involving the non linear combination of hyperbolic tangent functions gives the best recognition rate for the Rank 1 obtained from two types of features, viz., sigmoid and fuzzy. The results of using rank level fusion on the publicly available multispectral palmprint database show the significant improvement in the recognition rate as compared to the individual spectral bands. Recognition rate of 99.4% from sigmoid features and that of 99.2% from fuzzy features based on Rank 1 is the outcome of the hyperbolic tangent nonlinearity.

Multispectral Palmprint Recognition Using a Quaternion Matrix
Palmprints have been widely studied for biometric recognition for many years. Traditionally, a white light source is used for illumination. Recently, multispectral imaging has drawn attention because of its high recognition accuracy. Multispectral palmprint systems can provide more discriminant information under different illuminations in a short time, thus they can achieve better recognition a...
متن کاملPCA Based Image Fusion for Multispectral Palm Enhancement
Image fusion is performed by combining the data from the multiple spectrums i.e. red, blue, NIR and green, results in enhanced image. Each spectral band has specific features of the palm that collect more information to improve the accuracy and anti-spoofing capability of palm print systems. Principal component analysis (PCA) are used for image fusion line like pattern are most discriminative f...
متن کاملFusion of Panchromatic and Multispectral Images Using Non Subsampled Contourlet Transform and FFT Based Spectral Histogram (RESEARCH NOTE)
Image fusion is a method for obtaining a highly informative image by merging the relative information of an object obtained from two or more image sources of the same scene. The satellite cameras give a single band panchromatic (PAN) image with high spatial information and multispectral (MS) image with more spectral information. The problem exists today is either PAN or MS image is available fr...
متن کاملHighly Accurate Multispectral Palmprint Recognition Using Statistical and Wavelet Features
Palmprint is one of the most useful physiological biometrics that can be used as a powerful means in personal recognition systems. The major features of the palmprints are palm lines, wrinkles and ridges, and many approaches use them in different ways towards solving the palmprint recognition problem. Here we proposed to use a set of statistical and waveletbased features; statistical to capture...
متن کاملMultispectral Palmprint Encoding and Recognition
Palmprints are emerging as a new entity in multimodal biometrics for human identification and verification. Multispectral palmprint images captured in the visible and infrared spectrum not only contain the wrinkles and ridge structure of a palm, but also the underlying pattern of veins; making them a highly discriminating biometric identifier. In this paper, we propose a feature encoding scheme...
