Abstract

Palmprint is an essential biometrics for personal identification, especially in forensic security. Due to the large valid region of palmprint, palmprint recognition is very time-consuming. Fast and accurate palmprint recognition is an urge problem. To speed up matching, some methods based on classification and indexing are proposed, in which accuracy may be dropped. Ridge distance is often used as an auxiliary feature in palmprint recognition. In this paper, a novel minutiae matching algorithm incorporating ridge distance is proposed. Firstly, we incorporate ridge distance to conventional minutiae. Then, with the restriction of ridge distance, palmprint alignment could be greatly sped up. Experimental results show that our method could not only reduce time cost for matching, but also improve matching accuracy.
