A Hierachical Fingerprint Matching Method Based on the Minutiae and Ridge Image
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a novel hierachical fingerprint matching method is proposed through using the minutiae and ridge image. The ridge-based matching is complementary to the minutiae-based matching for the purpose to reduce the false matching. The ridge matching is only accomplished in the area of the convex hull constructed by those matched minutiae in the phase of minutiae-based matching. Experimental results demonstrate this proposed method to be not only improved the matching performance, but also more time saving than the ridge-based schemes. Key-Words: fingerprint, minutiae, ridge image, minutiae matching, ridge matching

A Fingerprint Minutiae Matching Method Based on Line Segment Vector
⎯Minutiae-based fingerprint matching is the most commonly used in an automatic fingerprint identification system. In this paper, we propose a minutia matching method based on line segment vector. This method uses all the detected minutiae (the ridge ending and the ridge bifurcation) in a fingerprint image to create a set of new vectors (line segment vector). Using these vectors, we can determin...
متن کاملAdaptive Fingerprint Image Enhancement with Minutiae Extraction
Fingerprint image enhancement is the basic and most required component of biometric verification system. This method proposes a fingerprint image enhancement and template based minutiae extraction techniques. For better enhancement the preprocessing stage includes global and local analysis. In the preprocessing and local analysis blocks, a nonlinear dynamic range adjustment method is used. In t...
متن کاملA Hybrid Fingerprint Matcher
Most fingerprint matching systems rely on the distribution of minutiae on the fingertip to represent and match fingerprints. While the ridge flow pattern is generally used for classifying fingerprints, it is seldom used for matching. This paper describes a hybrid fingerprint matching scheme that uses both minutiae and ridge flow information to represent and match fingerprints. A set of 8 Gabor ...
متن کاملFingerprint Features Extraction and Matching
The proposed ridge features are composed of four elements: ridge count, ridge length, ridge curvature direction, and ridge type. For extracting ridge features, we also define the ridge-based coordinate system in a skeletonized image With the proposed ridge features and conventional minutiae features(minutiae type, orientation, and position), we propose a novel matching scheme using a breadth-fi...
متن کاملSt Reading Determination of Minutiae Scores for Fingerprint Image Applications * 5 1st Reading
27 Many Automatic Fingerprint Identification Systems (AFIS) are based on minutiae matching. Minutiae are the terminations and bifurcations of the ridge lines in a fin-29 gerprint image. A gray-scale fingerprint image that has undergone binarization, followed by thinning, in order to extract the minutiae, may contain hundreds of minutiae, all of 31 which are not so vivid and obvious in the origi...
