Traditional ̄ngerprint veri ̄cations use single image for matching. However, the veri ̄cation accuracy cannot meet the need of some application domains. In this paper, we propose to use videos for ̄ngerprint veri ̄cation. To take full use of the information contained in ̄ngerprint videos, we present a novel method to use the dynamic as well as the static information in ̄ngerprint videos. After preproc...

By thresholding average peakto-correlation (PCE) values from the shot based SPNs, t...
