Low-quality fingerprint recognition using a limited ellipse-band-based matching method

Abstract

Current fingerprint recognition technologies are based mostly on the minutia algorithms, which cannot recognize fingerprint images in low-quality conditions. This paper proposes a novel recognition algorithm using a limited ellipse-band-based matching method. It uses the Fourier–Mellin transformation method to improve the limitation of the original algorithm, which cannot resist rotation changes. Furthermore, an ellipse band on the frequency amplitude is used to suppress noise that is introduced by the high-frequency parts of images. Finally, the recognition result is obtained by considering both the contrast and position correlation peaks. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can increase the recognition accuracy, particularly of images in low-quality conditions.
