Palmprint recognition has been investigated over 10 years,After palmprint , fingerprints or iris digital, biometric identification of an individual can be done through the veins of the hand. This paper provides an overview of current biometric systems technology based on hand vein. We first review the component modules including the algorithms they employ. Finally, a summary of the accuracy res...

Palmprint biometric technology is most accurate and reliable, which has acquired good impact over the remaining biometric technologies. Palmprint contains various features like minutiae points, wrinkles, palm lines and texture, etc. A Number of line based approaches, subspace based approaches and texture based methods for extracting features from Palmprint have been considered and studied thoro...

The paper presents a fully automatic palmprint verification system which uses 2D phase congruency to extract line features from a palmprint image and subsequently performs linear discriminant analysis on the computed line features to represent them in a more compact manner. The system was trained and tested on a database of 200 people (2000 hand images) and achieved a false acceptance rate (FAR...

The rapid development in many applications for some different areas, such as public security, access control and surveillance, requires reliable and automatic personal recognition for effective security control. Traditionally, passwords (knowledge-based security) and ID cards (token-based) have been used. However, security can be easily breached when a password is divulged or a card is stolen; ...

The spectral minutiae representation (SMC) has been recently proposed as a novel method to minutiae-based fingerprint recognition, which is invariant to minutiae translation and rotation and presents low computational complexity. As high-resolution palmprint recognition is also mainly based on minutiae sets, SMC has been applied to palmprints and used in full-to-full palmprint matching. However...

To carry out an effective classification and recognition for target, this paper studies the target owned characteristics, discusses a decryption algorithm, gives a feature extraction method based on the decryption process, and extracts the feature of palmprint in region of interest. Moreover, this paper uses the wavelet transform to extract the energy feature of target, gives an approach of mat...

Although several palmprint representations have been proposed for personal authentication, there is little agreement on which palmprint representation can provide best representation for reliable authentication. In this paper, we characterize user’s identity through the simultaneous use of three major palmprint representations and achieve better performance than either one individually. This pa...
