Optimum Feature for Palmprint Image Authentication
Palm print authentications have become extensive research in recent years. Some research discussing palm print authentication emphasize on matching of two feature vectors of it. Problem faced by the research in this field is the sampling process. Different position of hand geometry results in different palm print image cause palm print to be unauthenticated. This research proposes an approach to solve the problem by first making image dimension using Multi-scale Wavelet Pyramid (MWP) to produce features represent palm print image. The next stage is feature matching by using Hamming Distance Similarity. Testing in several levels combination show that integration of level 1 and level 2 yields optimum feature. The evaluation result produce that MWP has faster and better performance accuracy up to 77.93% with threshold 4700

Three Dimensional Palmprint Recognition using Structured Light Imaging
BTAS 2008 - IEEE 2nd International Conference on Biometrics: Theory, Applications and Systems, Arlington, VA, 29-1 October 2008Palmprint is one of the most unique and stable biometric characteristics. Although 2D palmprint recognition can achieve high accuracy, the 2D palmprint images can be easily counterfeited and much 3D depth information is lost in the imaging process. This paper presents a new approach, 3D palmprint recognition, to exploit the 3D structural information of the palm surface. The structured-light imaging is used to acquire the 3D palmprint data, from which the features of Mean Curvature, Gauss Curvature and Surface Type (ST) are extracted. A fast feature matching and score level fusion strategy are then used to classify the input 3D palmprint data. With the established 3D palmprint database, a series of verification and identification experiments are conducted and the results show that 3D palmprint technique can achieve high recognition rate while having high anti-counterfeiting capability.Department of ComputingRefereed conference pape
A Survey Paper on Palm Prints Based Biometric Authentication System
In this paper we are providing an approach for authentication using palm prints. Reliability in computer aided personal authentication is becoming increasingly important in the information-based world, for effective security system. Biometrics is physiological characteristics of human beings, unique for every individual that are usually time invariant and easy to acquire. Palm print is one of the relatively new physiological biometrics due to its stable and unique characteristics. The rich information of palm print offers one of the powerful means in personal recognition

Embedded Palmprint Recognition System Using OMAP 3530
We have proposed in this paper an embedded palmprint recognition system using the dual-core OMAP 3530 platform. An improved algorithm based on palm code was proposed first. In this method, a Gabor wavelet is first convolved with the palmprint image to produce a response image, where local binary patterns are then applied to code the relation among the magnitude of wavelet response at the ccentral pixel with that of its neighbors. The method is fully tested using the public PolyU palmprint database. While palm code achieves only about 89% accuracy, over 96% accuracy is achieved by the proposed G-LBP approach. The proposed algorithm was then deployed to the DSP processor of OMAP 3530 and work together with the ARM processor for feature extraction. When complicated algorithms run on the DSP processor, the ARM processor can focus on image capture, user interface and peripheral control. Integrated with an image sensing module and central processing board, the designed device can achieve accurate and real time performance
Deep learning approach for Touchless Palmprint Recognition based on Alexnet and Fuzzy Support Vector Machine
Due to stable and discriminative features, palmprint-based biometrics has been gaining popularity in recent years. Most of the traditional palmprint recognition systems are designed with a group of hand-crafted features that ignores some additional features. For tackling the problem described above, a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) model inspired by Alex-net that learns the features from the ROI images and classifies using a fuzzy support vector machine is proposed. The output of the CNN is fed as input to the fuzzy Support vector machine. The CNN\u27s receptive field aids in extracting the most discriminative features from the palmprint images, and Fuzzy SVM results in a robust classification. The experiments are conducted on popular contactless datasets such as IITD, POLYU2, Tongji, and CASIA databases. Results demonstrate our approach outperformers several state-of-art techniques for palmprint recognition. Using this approach, we obtain 99.98% testing accuracy for the Tongji dataset and 99.76 % for the POLYU-II datasets
Multispectral Palmprint Encoding and Recognition
Palmprints are emerging as a new entity in multi-modal biometrics for human
identification and verification. Multispectral palmprint images captured in the
visible and infrared spectrum not only contain the wrinkles and ridge structure
of a palm, but also the underlying pattern of veins; making them a highly
discriminating biometric identifier. In this paper, we propose a feature
encoding scheme for robust and highly accurate representation and matching of
multispectral palmprints. To facilitate compact storage of the feature, we
design a binary hash table structure that allows for efficient matching in
large databases. Comprehensive experiments for both identification and
verification scenarios are performed on two public datasets -- one captured
with a contact-based sensor (PolyU dataset), and the other with a contact-free
sensor (CASIA dataset). Recognition results in various experimental setups show
that the proposed method consistently outperforms existing state-of-the-art
methods. Error rates achieved by our method (0.003% on PolyU and 0.2% on CASIA)
are the lowest reported in literature on both dataset and clearly indicate the
viability of palmprint as a reliable and promising biometric. All source codes
are publicly available.Comment: Preliminary version of this manuscript was published in ICCV 2011. Z.

Principal line based ICP alignment for palmprint verification
2009 IEEE International Conference on Image Processing, ICIP 2009, Cairo, 7-10 November 2009Image alignment is a crucial step in palmprint verification. However, most of the existing palmprint alignment methods use only some key points between fingers or in palm boundary to extract the region of interest (ROI), which is consequently used for feature extraction and matching. Such alignment methods can only give a coarse alignment of the palmprint images. This paper presents a new effective refinement method for palmprint alignment by adapting the iterative closest point (ICP) method to the palmprint principal lines. The proposed method offers a more accurate alignment of palmprints by correcting efficiently the shifting, rotation and scaling variations introduced in data acquisition. The experimental results show that the proposed method can greatly improve the palmprint verification accuracy in real time.Department of ComputingRefereed conference pape
