Palmprint Recognition by using Bandlet, Ridgelet, Wavelet and Neural Network
Palmprint recognition has emerged as a substantial biometric based personal identification. Tow types of biometrics palmprint feature. high resolution feature that includes: minutia points, ridges and singular points that could be extracted for forensic applications. Moreover, low resolution feature such as wrinkles and principal lines which could be extracted for commercial applications. This paper uses 700nm spectral band PolyU hyperspectral palmprint database. Multiscale image transform: bandlet, ridgelet and 2D discrete wavelet have been applied to extract feature. The size of features are reduced by using principle component analysis and linear discriminate analysis. Feed-forward Back-propagation neural network is used as a classifier. The recognition rate accuracy shows that bandlet transform outperforms others
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
Fingerprint Recognition Using Translation Invariant Scattering Network
Fingerprint recognition has drawn a lot of attention during last decades.
Different features and algorithms have been used for fingerprint recognition in
the past. In this paper, a powerful image representation called scattering
transform/network, is used for recognition. Scattering network is a
convolutional network where its architecture and filters are predefined wavelet
transforms. The first layer of scattering representation is similar to sift
descriptors and the higher layers capture higher frequency content of the
signal. After extraction of scattering features, their dimensionality is
reduced by applying principal component analysis (PCA). At the end, multi-class
SVM is used to perform template matching for the recognition task. The proposed
scheme is tested on a well-known fingerprint database and has shown promising
results with the best accuracy rate of 98\%.Comment: IEEE Signal Processing in Medicine and Biology Symposium, 201
Palmprint Gender Classification Using Deep Learning Methods
Gender identification is an important technique that can improve the performance of authentication systems by reducing searching space and speeding up the matching process. Several biometric traits have been used to ascertain human gender. Among them, the human palmprint possesses several discriminating features such as principal-lines, wrinkles, ridges, and minutiae features and that offer cues for gender identification. The goal of this work is to develop novel deep-learning techniques to determine gender from palmprint images. PolyU and CASIA palmprint databases with 90,000 and 5502 images respectively were used for training and testing purposes in this research. After ROI extraction and data augmentation were performed, various convolutional and deep learning-based classification approaches were empirically designed, optimized, and tested. Results of gender classification as high as 94.87% were achieved on the PolyU palmprint database and 90.70% accuracy on the CASIA palmprint database. Optimal performance was achieved by combining two different pre-trained and fine-tuned deep CNNs (VGGNet and DenseNet) through score level average fusion. In addition, Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM) was also implemented to ascertain which specific regions of the palmprint are most discriminative for gender classification
