Palmprint technology is a new branch of biometrics used to identify an individual. Palmprint has rich set of features like palm lines, wrinkles, minutiae points, texture, ridges, etc. Several line and texture extraction techniques for palmprint have been extensively studied. This paper presents an intramodal authentication system based on texture information extracted from the palmprint using the Haralick features, 2D-Gabor and 2D-log Gabor filters. An individual feature vector is computed for a palmprint using the extracted texture information of each filter type. Performance of the system using three feature types is evaluated individually. Finally, we combine the three feature types using feature level fusion to develop an intramodal palmprint recognition system. The experiments are evaluated on a standard benchmark database (PolyU Database), and the results shows that significant improvement in terms of recognition accuracy and error rates with the proposed intramodal recognition system compared to individual representations.
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.
