Multispectral Palmprint Recognition Using Textural Features

In order to utilize identification to the best extent, we need robust and fast algorithms and systems to process the data. Having palmprint as a reliable and unique characteristic of every person, we extract and use its features based on its geometry, lines and angles. There are countless ways to define measures for the recognition task. To analyze a new point of view, we extracted textural features and used them for palmprint recognition. Co-occurrence matrix can be used for textural feature extraction. As classifiers, we have used the minimum distance classifier (MDC) and the weighted majority voting system (WMV). The proposed method is tested on a well-known multispectral palmprint dataset of 6000 samples and an accuracy rate of 99.96-100% is obtained for most scenarios which outperforms all previous works in multispectral palmprint recognition.Comment: 5 pages, Published in IEEE Signal Processing in Medicine and Biology Symposium 201

Fourier spectral of PalmCode as descriptor for palmprint recognition

Study on automatic person recognition by palmprint is currently a hot topic. In this paper, we propose a novel palmprint recognition method by transforming the typical palmprint phase code feature into its Fourier frequency domain. The resulting real-valued Fourier spectral features are further processed by horizontal and vertical 2DPCA method, which proves highly efficient in terms of computational complexity, storage requirement and recognition accuracy. This paper also gives a contrast study on palm code and competitive code under the proposed feature extraction framework. Besides, experimental results on the Hongkong PolyU Palmprint database demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms many currently reported local Gabor pattern approaches for palmprint recognition

Palm Print Recognition Using Curve let Transform

In the era of Information Technology, openness of the information is a major concern. As the confidentiality and integrity of the information is critically important, it has to be secured from unauthorized access. Traditional security and identification are not sufficient enough; people need to find a new authentic system based on behavioral & physiological characteristics of person which is called as Biometric. Palm print recognition gives several advantages over the other biometrics such as low resolution, low cost, non-intrusiveness and stable structure features. Now a days Palm print based personal verification system is used in many security application due to its ease of acquisition, high user acceptance and reliability. Various approaches which deal with palm recognition are texture approach, line approach and appearance approach. By using texture approach it is possible to obtain texture sample with low resolution and texture is much more stable as compare to line and appearance. This paper is aimed to analyze the performance of palm print recognition systems using Curvelet features and for dimension reduction PCA is used
