Fusion of Statistical and Structural Fingerprint Classifiers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Classification is an important step towards fingerprint recognition. In the classification stage, fingerprints are usually associated to one of the five classes “A”, “L”, “R”, “T”, “W”. The aim is to reduce the number of comparisons that are necessary for recognition. Many approaches to fingerprint classification have been proposed so far, but very few works investigated the potentialities of combining statistical and structural algorithms. In this paper, an approach to fusion of statistical and structural fingerprint classifiers is presented and experiments that show the potentialities of such fusion are reported.

Quality-augmented fusion of level-2 and level-3 fingerprint information using DSm theory
Existing algorithms that fuse level-2 and level-3 fingerprint match scores perform well when the number of features are adequate and the quality of images are acceptable. In practice, fingerprints collected under unconstrained environment neither guarantee the requisite image quality nor the minimum number of features required. This paper presents a novel fusion algorithm that recognizes finger...
متن کاملFramework for biometric match score fusion using statistical and belief models
This chapter presents a framework for multi-biometric match score fusion when non-ideal conditions cause conflict in the results of different unimodal biometrics classifiers. The proposed framework uses belief function theory to effectively fuse the match scores and density estimation technique to compute the belief assignments. Fusion is performed using belief models such as Transferable Belie...
متن کاملEffective Fingerprint Classification by Localized Models of Support Vector Machines
Fingerprint classification is useful as a preliminary step of the matching process and is performed in order to reduce searching time. Various classifiers like support vector machines (SVMs) have been used to fingerprint classification. Since the SVM which achieves high accuracy in pattern classification is a binary classifier, we propose a classifier-fusion method, multiple decision templates ...
متن کاملMulti-Modal Biometric Verification Based on FAR-score Normalization
Fusion different biometrics is an effective way to design a biometric system with robust performance. To do this, normalization functions are employed. However, these functions can not follow the distributions of scores from distinct classifiers. Consequently different normalization errors are introduced. In this paper, the scores from different classifiers are converted into the corresponding ...
