Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the context, motivation and current status of biometric systems based on the palmprint, with a specific focus on touchless and less-constrained systems. It covers new technologies in this rapidly evolving field and is one of the first comprehensive books on palmprint recognition systems. It discusses the research literature and the most relevant industrial applications of palmprint biometrics, including the low-cost solutions based on webcams. The steps of biometric recognition are described in detail, including acquisition setups, algorithms, and evaluation procedures. Constraints and limitations of current palmprint recognition systems are analyzed and discussed. The authors also introduce innovative methods for touchless and less-constrained palmprint recognition, with the aim to make palmprint biometrics easier to use in practical, daily-life applications, and overcome the typical constraints and limitations described. Touchless Palmprint Recognition Systems targets professionals and researchers working in biometrics, image processing and three-dimensional reconstruction. Advanced-level students studying biometrics and computer science will also find this material valuable as a secondary text book or reference.

Book Image Sharpness Based System Design for Touchless Palmprint Recognition

Download or read book Image Sharpness Based System Design for Touchless Palmprint Recognition written by David Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, many palmprint acquisition devices have been proposed, but how to design the systems are seldom studied, such as how to choose the imaging sensor, the lens, and the working distance. This chapter aims to find the relationship between image sharpness and recognition performance and then utilize this information to direct the system design. In this chapter, firstly, we introduce the development of recent palmprint acquisition systems and abstract their basic frameworks to propose the key problems needed to be solved when designing new systems. Secondly, the relationship between the palm distance in the field of view (FOV) and image pixels per inch (PPI) is studied based on the imaging model. Suggestions about how to select the imaging sensor and camera lens are provided. Thirdly, image blur and depth of focus (DOF) are taken into consideration; the recognition performances of the image layers in the Gaussian scale space are analyzed. Based on this, an image sharpness range is determined for optimal imaging. The experiment results are obtained using different algorithms on various touchless palmprint databases collected using different kinds of devices. They could be references for new system design.

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.

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.
