Veins Based Personal Identification Systems: A Review

Abstract

Abstract-Identification of people among each other has always been a tough and challenging task for the researchers. There are many techniques which are used for identify ing a person but biometric technique is the standard one which allows us for online identification of individuals on the basis of their physiological and behavioral features. The veins based systems include finger veins, face veins, palm veins, head veins, heart veins, iris, palatal veins of the rogue etc. The multi-veins based systems use the veins of different physiological traits for identifying a person. This paper illustrates an overview of veins based personal identificat ion systems . The perfo rmance of different single and multi-veins based identification systems are analyzed in this paper. The features like reliability, security, accuracy, robustness and long term stability along with the strengths and weaknesses of various veins based biometric approaches were taken into considerations while analy zing the results of existing research papers published so far. At last the future research directions in the field of veins based identification systems have also been outlined.

A Systematic Review of Finger Vein Recognition Techniques

“…Furthermore, the method in References [85,86] greatly reduces the computational cost, removes noise and enhances identification accuracy. Yang et al [87] proposed (2D) 2 PCA method for feature extraction, which is more effective than the method in Reference [86] and B2DPCA. The dimension of the feature is considered very important; the system consumes more time if the dimension of the feature vector is high.…”

“…Biometric recognition refers to an automatic recognition of individual properties acquired by their anatomic/behavioral characteristics. Several types of biometric techniques have been presented based on these anatomic/behavioral features such as fingerprint, palm print, hand veins, finger veins, palm veins, foot vein, iris, gait, DNA recognition, palates, voice recognition, facial expression, heartbeat, signature, body language, and face shape [2]. These biometric recognition approaches can be divided into two categories: (i) extrinsic biometric features (palm print, iris, fingerprint, face) and (ii) intrinsic biometric features (palm vein, hand vein, and finger vein) [3].…”

Palm Vein Recognition System for Human Authentication: A Review

“…This vein design is then checked against a pre-enrolled example to confirm the person. This process makes the vein recognition possible [6]. Vein based recognition technique is much more secure and unique as compare to other technique because the authentication data present under the skin of a person.…”

Finger vein recognition using two parallel enhancement ppproachs based fuzzy histogram equalization

“…Anatomic features include fingerprint, palm print, hand veins, finger veins, palm veins, foot vein, iris, gait and DNA recognition. Based on these features, a number of biometric techniques has been already presented [3]. Following are the two categories of biometric recognition approaches: (i) Features that are extrinsic i.e.…”
