Fingerprint recognition by minutia matching

Abstract

In this thesis a current technique for fingerprint recognition has been investigated. It includes image preprocessing, feature extraction, post processing and feature match. For each sub-task some methods like- Image enhancement, image binarization, image segmentation and some morphological operations has analyzed. Based on the analysis, an integrated solution for fingerprint recognition is developed for demonstration. The demonstration program has coded using MATLAB 7.1. The performances have shown by experiments conducted upon a variety of fingerprint images. Also, the experiments illustrate the key issues of fingerprint recognition that are consistent with this conversation.
