Dense registration of different impressions of the same finger is beneficial to various
fingerprint matching methods. This is a challenging problem due to elastic distortion of finger …

Fingerprint dense registration aims to finely align fingerprint pairs at the pixel level, thereby
reducing intra-class differences caused by distortion. Unfortunately, traditional methods …

To obtain a large fingerprint image from several small partial images, mosaicking of
fingerprint images has been recently researched. However, existing approaches cannot …

Fingerprint matching with elastic distortion is very challenging to deal with, and severe
fingerprint distortion usually leads to false non-matches. This paper proposes a phase …

In this study, the authors present a hierarchical algorithm to register a partial fingerprint
against a full fingerprint using only the orientation fields. In the first level, they shortlist …

Fingerprint recognition is widely used for verification and identification in many commercial,
governmental and forensic applications. The orientation field (OF) plays an important role at …

In this paper a novel distortion-tolerant fingerprint registration method based on clustering is
proposed. In this method, minutiae features of the query fingerprint are divided into various …

Fingerprint indexing is an efficient technique that greatly improves the performance of
fingerprint based person authentication systems by reducing the number of comparison. In …

Fingerprint verification is one of the most reliable personal identification method. However,
manual fingerprint verification is tedious, time consuming and expensive. Thus it is …

Most of the proposed methods used for fingerprint verification are based on local visible
features called minutiae. However, due to problems for extracting minutiae from low-quality …
