This paper introduces the concept of a mapogram. A ma- pogram may be viewed as a special form of spatiogram, which is a histogram containing additional spatial information. Additionally, this paper presents theory relevant to the creation of a proposed mapogram. A similarity measure derived from the Bhattacharyya coefficient is obtained in order to make comparisons between mapograms. Examples using...
Human fingerprints are rich in details denoted minutiae. In this paper a method of minutiae extraction from fingerprint skeletons is described. To identify the different shapes and types of minutiae a neural network is trained to work as a classifier. The proposed neural network is applied throughout the fingerprint skeleton to locate various minutiae. A scheme to speed up the process is also presented...
This paper presents a new approach for fingerprint enhancement by using directional filters and binarization. A straightforward method for automatically tuning the size of local area is obtained by analyzing entire fingerprint image in the frequency domain. Hence, the algorithm will adjust adaptively to the local area of the fingerprint image, independent on the characteristics of the fingerprint...
