The fundamentals of unimodal palmprint authentication based on a biometric system: A review
Biometric system can be defined as the automated method of identifying or authenticating the identity of a living person based on physiological or behavioral traits. Palmprint biometric-based authentication has gained considerable attention in recent years. Globally, enterprises have been exploring biometric authorization for some time, for the purpose of security, payment processing, law enforcement CCTV systems, and even access to offices, buildings, and gyms via the entry doors. Palmprint biometric system can be divided into unimodal and multimodal. This paper will investigate the biometric system and provide a detailed overview of the palmprint technology with existing recognition approaches. Finally, we introduce a review of previous works based on a unimodal palmprint system using different databases
Semi-Supervised Sparse Coding
Sparse coding approximates the data sample as a sparse linear combination of
some basic codewords and uses the sparse codes as new presentations. In this
paper, we investigate learning discriminative sparse codes by sparse coding in
a semi-supervised manner, where only a few training samples are labeled. By
using the manifold structure spanned by the data set of both labeled and
unlabeled samples and the constraints provided by the labels of the labeled
samples, we learn the variable class labels for all the samples. Furthermore,
to improve the discriminative ability of the learned sparse codes, we assume
that the class labels could be predicted from the sparse codes directly using a
linear classifier. By solving the codebook, sparse codes, class labels and
classifier parameters simultaneously in a unified objective function, we
develop a semi-supervised sparse coding algorithm. Experiments on two
real-world pattern recognition problems demonstrate the advantage of the
proposed methods over supervised sparse coding methods on partially labeled
data sets
