background and objectives: attenuated total reflectance-inferared (atr-ir) spectra can be used as a non-invasive fingerprinting approach in quality control of herbal samples. methods: twenty versatile herbal samples were subjected to attenuated total reflectance-inferared (atr-ir) spectroscopy followed by different clustering methods in order to determine by which method more reasonable classif...

FeiYangchangweiyan capsule (FY capsule), a traditional Chinese medicinal preparation consisting of three medicinal herbs, has been used to treat bacterial dysentery, acute, and chronic gastroenteritis for several decades. In this study, a novel, convenient, accurate, and valid method was developed by using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with diode array detection...

Conventional algorithms for fingerprint recognition are mainly based on minutiae information. However, the small number of minutiae in partial fingerprints is still a challenge in fingerprint matching. In fingerprint recognition systems, there are frequently appeared partial fingerprints, such as incompletely touching in fingerprint scanning or latent fingerprints. In this paper, we studied the...

Fingerprint identification system is mainly consisted of fingerprint achieving, fingerprint classification and fingerprint matching. Fingerprint matching is the key to the system and effects on the precision and efficiency of the whole system directly. Fingerprints are matched mainly based on their fingerprint texture pattern which can be described with the orientation field of fingerprints. A ...

Fingerprint identification is divided into fingerprint pretreatment, fingerprint feature extract ion and a fingerprint match. Based on embedded technology and fingerprints processing algorithms, embedded automatic fingerprint identification system fingerprint identification of various processes study the algorithm, this paper expounds the characteristics of various algorithm with using details.

Fingerprint ridge frequency is a global feature, which is most prominently different in fingerprints of men and woman, and it also changes within the maturing period of a person. This paper proposes the method of fingerprint pre-classification, based on the ridge frequency replacement by the density of edge points of the ridge boundary. This method is to be used after applying the common steps ...

Fingerprint biometric is one of the most successful biometrics applied in both forensic law enforcement and security applications. Recent developments in fingerprint acquisition technology have resulted in touchless live scan devices that generate 3D representation of fingerprints, and thus can overcome the deformation and smearing problems caused by conventional contact-based acquisition techn...

Extracting minutiae from fingerprint images is one of the most important steps in automatic fingerprint identification system. Because minutiae matching are certainly the most well-known and widely used method for fingerprint matching, minutiae are local discontinuities in the fingerprint pattern. In this paper a fingerprint matching algorithm is proposed using some specific feature of the minu...
