Contactless Palmprint Recognition System: A Survey
Information systems in organizations traditionally require users to remember their secret
pins or (passwords), token, card number, or both to con�rm their identities. However, the technological
trend has been moving towards personal identi�cation based on individual behavioural attributes (such as
gaits, signature, and voice) or physiological attributes (such as palmprint, �ngerprint, face, iris, or ear).
These attributes (biometrics) offer many advantages over knowledge and possession-based approaches. For
example, palmprint images have rich, unique features for reliable human identi�cation, and it has received
signi�cant attention due to their stability, reliability, uniqueness, and non-intrusiveness. This paper provides
an overview and evaluation of contactless palmprint recognition system, the state-of-the-art performance of
existing studies, different types of ``Region of Interest'' (ROI) extraction algorithms, feature extraction, and
matching algorithms. Finally, the �ndings obtained are presented and discussed
Handbook of Vascular Biometrics
This open access handbook provides the first comprehensive overview of biometrics exploiting the shape of human blood vessels for biometric recognition, i.e. vascular biometrics, including finger vein recognition, hand/palm vein recognition, retina recognition, and sclera recognition. After an introductory chapter summarizing the state of the art in and availability of commercial systems and open datasets/open source software, individual chapters focus on specific aspects of one of the biometric modalities, including questions of usability, security, and privacy. The book features contributions from both academia and major industrial manufacturers
