Book Advanced Fingerprint Recognition  From 3D Shape to Ridge Detail

Download or read book Advanced Fingerprint Recognition From 3D Shape to Ridge Detail written by Feng Liu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-22 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fingerprints are among the most widely used biometric modalities and have been successfully applied in various scenarios. For example, in forensics, fingerprints serve as important legal evidence; and in civilian applications, fingerprints are used for access and attendance control as well as other identity services. Thanks to advances in three-dimensional (3D) and high-resolution imaging technology, it is now feasible to capture 3D or high-resolution fingerprints to provide extra information and go beyond the traditional features such as global ridge patterns and local ridge singularities used in conventional fingerprint recognition tasks. This book presents the state of the art in the acquisition and analysis of 3D and high-resolution fingerprints. Based on the authors’ research, this book focuses on advanced fingerprint recognition using 3D fingerprint features (i.e., finger shape, level 0 features) or high-resolution fingerprint features (i.e., ridge detail, level 3 features). It is a valuable resource for researchers, professionals and graduate students working in the field of computer vision, pattern recognition, security/biometrics practice, as well as interdisciplinary researchers.

Book Evaluating the Operational Impact of Contactless Fingerprint Imagery on Matcher Performance

Download or read book Evaluating the Operational Impact of Contactless Fingerprint Imagery on Matcher Performance written by Shahram Orandi and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study set out to examine the operational impact of introducing contactless fingerprint imagery to a modern fingerprint matching system that was designed for touch-collected images in either a standard Ten-Print operational matching pathway or a Mobile ID optimized operational pathway, depending on configuration. Contactless fingerprint imagery from six contactless devices were used, along with mated imagery from two touch-based devices using a block experimental design. Experimental cases were defined for the matching of contactless fingerprint imagery as either probe or biometric reference database, and system matching accuracy measured in terms of false negative identification rate (FNIR). Due to the small data set available, the experiment was not structured to measure false positive error rates. Results showed the viability of using contactless imagery as the biometric reference database, albeit using these images will come at the price of matching accuracy on the Ten-Print matcher (FNIR of 0.5?% worst case for touch devices vs. FNIR of 1.6?% best case for contactless). The Mobile ID matcher seemed to close the gap between contactless and touch with the best performing contactless device in terms of accuracy (D3) performing at an FNIR of 0.8?% while the worst performing touch-to-touch device was measured at FNIR of 0.5?% showing that Mobile ID optimizations may be key in the introduction of contactless into existing matching pathways. Finally, the introduction of contactless imagery did incur a larger throughput penalty on the Ten- Print matcher than it did on the Mobile ID operational matcher.

Download or read book 3D Biometrics written by David Zhang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-05-31 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automatic personal authentication using biometric information is becoming more essential in applications of public security, access control, forensics, banking, etc. Many kinds of biometric authentication techniques have been developed based on different biometric characteristics. However, most of the physical biometric recognition techniques are based on two dimensional (2D) images, despite the fact that human characteristics are three dimensional (3D) surfaces. Recently, 3D techniques have been applied to biometric applications such as 3D face, 3D palmprint, 3D fingerprint, and 3D ear recognition. This book introduces four typical 3D imaging methods, and presents some case studies in the field of 3D biometrics. This book also includes many efficient 3D feature extraction, matching, and fusion algorithms. These 3D imaging methods and their applications are given as follows: - Single view imaging with line structured-light: 3D ear identification - Single view imaging with multi-line structured-light: 3D palmprint authentication - Single view imaging using only 3D camera: 3D hand verification - Multi-view imaging: 3D fingerprint recognition 3D Biometrics: Systems and Applications is a comprehensive introduction to both theoretical issues and practical implementation in 3D biometric authentication. It will serve as a textbook or as a useful reference for graduate students and researchers in the fields of computer science, electrical engineering, systems science, and information technology. Researchers and practitioners in industry and R&D laboratories working on security system design, biometrics, immigration, law enforcement, control, and pattern recognition will also find much of interest in this book.

Book Guidance for Evaluating Contactless Fingerprint Acquisition Devices

Download or read book Guidance for Evaluating Contactless Fingerprint Acquisition Devices written by John Libert and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document details efforts undertaken by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to develop measurements and a protocol for the evaluation of contactless (touchless) fingerprint acquisition devices. Contactless fingerprint capture differs fundamentally from legacy contact fingerprinting methods, and poses novel problems for image quality evaluation and challenges relative to interoperability with contact fingerprints that populate large repositories maintained by law enforcement and Federal Government organizations. For contact acquisition, the fingerprint impression is a first-order transfer of the 3D friction ridge structure to the recording surface. The third dimension of the curved finger surface is effectively removed by pressure against the planar recording surface. The 3D topography of the ridges and furrows are transferred with low ambiguity to the recording surface as dark ridges (points of contact) and lighter furrows (lesser or no contact). Contactless images by comparison, in most cases, are third-order renderings of an original photographic representation, itself a 2D optical projection of the 3D structure of the finger. The appearance of this projection is subject to variability as low- or moderately-controlled lighting interacts with the 3D geometry of the finger, the friction ridge structure superimposed on the finger, and the geometry of the presentation of the finger to the contactless device. The photograph must then be subjected to various image processing methods to infer the ridge structure for rendering as a fingerprint similar in appearance to legacy contact captures. The rendering process is the source of numerous errors relative to contact captures. Despite problems with image quality, this early study finds contactless fingerprints of the devices examined to be usable in some applications, with qualifications, including one- to-many matching against small databases.
