In this digital era, the authenticity of digital documents can be doubtful because it may suffer from tampering activity. Looking into Muslim community, the most important book/scripture is the Holy Quran. The Muslim community has put great efforts to ensure the authenticity of the printed Holy Quran. However, such effort is not accompanied for digital Holy Quran. In this paper, we propose a fragile...
Unconstrained ear biometric means an ear image that has variance in view and pose. This situation is challenging in ear recognition because one ear has various presentation. In this study, two features are considered to handle unconstrained ear image. The features called geometrical feature and eigenvector features. In eigenvector feature, the ear is extracted from six regions then the eigenvector...
License plate recognition (LPR) systems have attracted the community to expand its benefit and usefulness. It gives easiness to keep tracks of the vehicles that enter and exit the same place. This success is influencing the people to develop mobile LPR systems. In the mobile LPR system, the camera is installed on a vehicle such as the police officer's car. In such systems, the problem is more challenging...
Processing the fingerprint image captured from the mobile phone camera is problematic. The addressed problem is such as degree of freedom, blurry, noisy and weak ridges-valleys images. In this paper, problem of blur assessment on fingerprint image is the main consent. In this regards, dataset of fingerprint image is collected from several subjects and different environment to obtain a clear and blur...
The Holy Quran is very important to the Muslims with respect to its authenticity. This paper studies and exploits the fragile watermarking method that works on block-wise in the wavelet domain and pixel-wise in the spatial domain. The input image is transformed into wavelet domain using discrete wavelet transform. Then, using block-wise based approach the coefficients matrix of wavelet-transformed...
Core-point detection is a crucial task in fingerprint recognition systems. Existing fingerprint system that deals with a large-scale database is considering the core-point prior to extract robust features. Performances of various core-point detections are reported throughout the literature exclusively intended for scanner-based fingerprint image. Despite propose and evaluate novel core-point detection...
This paper introduces a novel fragile watermarking method for digital Quran image authentication and tamper identification. The presented scheme utilizes discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and can locate the pixels of malicious tampering if present. The wavelet coefficients are considered for embedding authentication code that are encrypted with a secret key, ensuring high security. The authentication...
Biometric systems have been implemented on numerous public facilities that able to enhance the security system. Nowadays, fingerprint and face are the most popular biometric. In addition, emerging technology has introduced potential biometric such as hand geometry, palm print, lips, teeth and vein. However, most of this biometric requires a special device to capture it. This will added more cost to...
This paper presents a performance comparison between the proposed segmentation method with the existing methods. Generally, the heuristic segmentation of proposed approach namely contour-based segmentation (CBS) is working on contour analysis and using two global features, which are estimation of stroke width and average character width. Meanwhile, enhanced heuristic segmentation (EHS) is based on...
