Combination a Skeleton Filter and Reduction Dimension of Kernel PCA Based on Palmprint Recognition

Palmprint identification is part of biometric recognition, which attracted many researchers, especially when fusion with face identification that will be applied in the airport to hasten knowing individual identity. To accelerate the process of verification feature palms, dimension reduction method is the dominant technique to extract the feature information of palms.The mechanism will boost if the ROI images are processed prior to get normalize image enhancement.In this paper with three sample input database, a kernel PCA method used as a dimension reduction compared with three others and a skeleton filter used as a image enhancement method compared with six others. The final results show that the proposed method successfully achieve the target in terms of the processing time of $0.7415$ second, the EER performance rate of 0.19 % and the success of verification process about 99,82 %

Palmprint Recognition Using Different Level of Information Fusion

The aim of this paper is to investigate a fusion approach suitable for palmprint recognition. Several number of fusion stageis analyse such as feature, matching and decision level. Fusion at feature level is able to increase discrimination power in the feature space by producing high dimensional fuse feature vector. Fusion at matching score level utilizes the matching output from different classifier to form a single value for decision process. Fusion at decision level on the other hand utilizes minimal information from a different matching process and the integration at this stage is less complex compare to other approach. The analysis shows integration at feature level produce the best recognition rates compare to the other method
