Abstract: | Finger-vein recognition refers to a recent biometric technique which exploits the vein patterns in the human finger to identify individuals. The advantages of finger vein over traditional biometrics (e.g. face, fingerprint, and iris) lie in low-risk forgery, noninvasiveness, and noncontact. This paper here presents a new method of personal identification based on finger-vein recognition. First, a stable region representing finger-vein network is cropped from the image plane of an imaging sensor. A bank of Gabor filters is then used to exploit the finger-vein characteristics at different orientations and scales. Based on the filtered image, both local and global finger-vein features are extracted to construct a finger-vein code (FVCode). Finally, finger-vein recognition is implemented using the cosine similarity measure classifier, and a fusion scheme in decision level is adopted to improve the reliability of identification. Experimental results show that the proposed method exhibit an exciting performance in personal identification. |
