Abstract
The paper compares methods can be used for increasing recognition rate of fingerprint recognition systems using idea of reconstructing ridgelines. Some of methods useful for that purpose can be found in literature. The paper proposes such methods for increasing recognition rate in connection with image enhancement methods. There is also discussed influence of global image enhancement methods for reconstruction of ridge lines in the digital fingerprint image and the assertion is introduced that performance of recognition of fingerprint ridge lines can’t be performed without preceding global image enhancement stage.
