In this method, minutia features of the query fingerprint are clustered into various clusters and a set of VLS is extracted. Several likely transformations between the query and the template images are estimated by using VLS sets. Then, CSV under each likely transformation is constructed by using the centroids of minutia clusters. The fine transformation is finally determined by the number of VLS pairs together with the similarity level of CSV. Experiment results show that this algorithm is an effective and efficient one for aligning fingerprints with a small number of minutia and heavy distortions. Such situations are often encountered in forensic applications.

LINE-SEGMENTS CRITICAL SLIP SURFACE IN EARTH SLOPES USING AN OPTIMIZATION METHOD
In this paper the factor of safety (FS) and critical line-segments slip surface obtained by the Alternating Variable Local Gradient (AVLG) optimization method was presented as a new topic in 2D. Results revealed that the percentage of reduction in the FS obtained by switching from a circular shape to line segments was higher with the AVLG method than other methods. The 2D-AVLG optimization meth...

Reconstruction of fingerprint ridge lines is a critical pre-processing step in the identification of poor quality fingerprint images. This paper presents a new fingerprint ridge line reconstruction approach by way of ridge line tracing. In our research, the fingerprint ridge line in a gray scale image is viewed as a track of a ridge segment moving along the ridge. The curve tracing problem is s...

متن کاملA Novel Fingerprint Algorithm Based on Line-Segment Chain
A novel representation of fingerprint image based on Line-Segment features which are extracted from a bank of Gabor-filtered fingerprint images is proposed in this paper. In the feature matching stage, quadrangles constructed with Perpendicularity Line-Segments are used to obtain the alignment parameters. Compared with the existing representations of fingerprint, line-Segment based representati...
