A multi-instance multi-sample palmprint identification system

Abstract

<span>The multibiometric recognition system considered more reliable than the unimodal biometric recognition system due to the addition of an extra information that increases the discrimination between the classes. In this paper, a multi-sample multi-instance biometric recognition system is proposed. The aim of the proposed system is to increase the robustness of the identification. the proposed system also addresses the overfitting to the train samples problem of a feature extraction algorithm, named 2-Dimensional Linear Discriminant analysis (2D-LDA). The samples in the proposed method are bootstrapped and the 2D-LDA performed on each group during the offline phase. While in the online phase, the tested class will be transformed into subspaces using different eigenvectors that obtained from different samplings, and the results matched with templates in the corresponding subspace. To evaluate the proposed method, two palmprint databases are used which are IIT Delhi Touchless Palmprint Database and PolyU palmprint database, and different rank-level fusion algorithms are investigated. The results of the proposed method show improvement in the identification rate.</span>

Eyelids, eyelashes detection algorithm and houghtransform method for noise removal in iris recognition

“…Criteria based eyelashes detection model for IrisSegmentation is proposed by Wai-Kin Kong et al [15]. B. Kang et al proposed method of robust eyelashes detection based on iris focus assessment [9]. Many researchers also concentrate on the accuracy of the iris recognition system [2,10,13,[17][18].…”

“…In recent years, the technology which is based on biometric identification got an instant development. Due to its high reliability, noncontact and some other advantages, iris recognition technology has widely acceptable [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Iris recognition is a method of biometric authentication, based on extracted features of the iris of an individual's eyes [1][2][3].…”

Local information pattern descriptor for corneal diseases diagnosis

“…Therefore, providing machines with the ability to comprehend their surroundings makes it able to help people in various ways and facilitate many of the works and tasks that they perform. For example, assistance in the security aspects [6], facilitates a lot of factory works, disease diagnosis, and searching in the contents of pictures or videos [7], which is known as computer vision [8].…”
