Biometric recognition, or simply biometrics, refers to the use of distinctive anatomical and/or
behavioral characteristics or identifiers (eg, fingerprints, face, iris, voice, and hand geometry) …

Sweat pores on fingerprints have proven to be discriminative features and have recently
been successfully employed in automatic fingerprint recognition systems (AFRS), where the …

This paper discusses the alignment of high resolution partial fingerprints, which is a crucial
step in partial fingerprint recognition. The previously developed fingerprint alignment …

Poroscopy is the study of sweat pores present on the papillary ridges of the skin. This review
paper aims to examine existing literature on poroscopy so that its relevance as a tool in …

High-resolution automated fingerprint recognition systems (AFRSs) offer higher security
because they are able to make use of level-3 features, such as pores, that are not available …

To obtain a Euclidean reconstruction from images the cameras have to be calibrated. In
recent years different approaches have been proposed to avoid explicit calibration. The …

Sweat pores on fingerprints have proven to be useful features for personal identification.
Several methods have been proposed for pore matching. The state-of-the-art method first …

With the development of high-resolution fingerprint scanners, high-resolution fingerprint-
based biometric recognition has received increasing attention in recent years. This paper …

Pores have been used for fingerprint recognition for many years. Introducing pores into
fingerprint image comparison can improve the recognition accuracy. This paper proposes a …

Background Poroscopy, as a means of personal identification, is largely unexplored. The
present study aims at assessing the reproducibility of fingerprint microfeatures namely, pore …
