Human identity recognition and protection of information security are current global concerns in this age of increasing information growth. Biometrics approach of defining identity is considered as one of the highly potential approaches due to its internal feature that is difficult to be artificially recreated, stolen and/or forgotten. The new recognition system based on finger vein is a unique method depending on physiological traits and parameters of the vein patterns for the human. Published works on finger vein identification have hitherto ignored the power of aggregating different types of features and classifiers in improving the performance of the biometric recognition system. In this paper, we developed a novel feature approach named as straight line approximator (SLA) for extending the feature space of vein pattern using a public data set SDUMLA-HMT comprising about 3,816 images of finger vein for 160 persons. Furthermore, we applied a set of extreme learning machine (ELM) and support vector machine (SVM) classifier in different kernels. Then, we used the combination rules to improve the performance of the system. The experiment result of the proposed method achieved an accuracy of 87% using (DS and GWAR) rules at rank 1, while the accuracy of DS rule 93% and GWAR rule 92% at rank 5.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
