A Novel Extended Biometric Approach for Human Character Recognition using Fingerprints

A bstract Aim To assess and correlate dactyloscopy and behavior of children undergoing dental treatment. Materials and methods A total of 30 children aged 4–8 years who needed at least one restoration without administration of local anesthesia were included. Two examiners recorded the behavior of the child as per Frankl's behavior rating scale and after the treatment, the subjects’ fingerprints were taken using an ink pad and white paper. The data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) versions 23 and a Chi-squared test was carried out ( p < 0.05). Results The loop type fingerprint had the highest frequency, while the archtype had the lowest. The child's behavior differed greatly ( p < 0.05) based on dermatoglyphic characteristics, with the loop pattern being seen in cooperative children and the whorl pattern in uncooperative children. Conclusion There is a positive correlation between fingerprint type and children's dental care. Clinical significance Dactyloscopy can be used to determine the behavior of children coming for dental treatment and hence help in their management.

“…This group tends to exhibit complex behavior and personality. They are sensitive to the expression of emotions in interactions, and others should take care during their treatment (Prabhu and Ravikumar 2013;Singh and Majumdar 2015). Given these characteristics, the more difficult interaction and lower cooperation of this group and the higher percentage of this fingerprint type in the uncooperative group can be explained.…”

Behavioral management and patient cooperation are very important in pediatric dentistry. Some studies have indicated that individual behavior can vary in terms of fingerprint patterns (loop, whorl, and arch). Therefore, fingerprint patterns might help to predict the extent of cooperation by children during dental procedures. The present study aimed to investigate the possible relationship between fingerprint patterns and cooperation by children. In this pilot investigation, 51 children aged 3-6 years were examined. The children meeting the inclusion criteria in the first visit were scheduled for a dental procedure in the second visit. Another examiner assessed children's behavior during the dental procedure according to the designed questionnaire and based on the Frankl scale. A third examiner, along with the second examiner, randomly evaluated the children's behavior to determine the inter-examiner agreement. The subjects were categorized as cooperative or uncooperative during dental procedures, according to the Frankel questionnaire. The fingerprints of all subjects were recorded, and the data were compared with SPSS 21 using the chi-squared test at a significance level of P < 0.05. The uncooperative and cooperative groups consisted of 20 and 31 children, respectively. The main fingerprint pattern in the uncooperative children was the whorl; while in the cooperative group, it was the loop. This difference in the fingerprint effect was significant between the groups (P = 0.01). The arch type exhibited the minimum frequency and was not significantly different between the groups. The current findings revealed a relationship between fingerprint type and children's behavior during dental treatment.

Personality classification is one of the areas of behavioral psychology that focuses on categorizing individuals. Different factors constitute the main currents of human personality. These factors turned out to be complicated and sometimes yield a biased result. Meanwhile, the entire human body reflects the character of its possessor more accurately than any set of questionnaires. Dermatoglyphics is the scientific study of fingerprints. Fingerprint patterns and ridge density are the viable bases in the classification of the personality of an individual. This uniqueness has expanded through research confirming parents' ability to identify their children's unique potentials through fingerprint analysis. Bridging the gap between computer science and psychology is one of the biggest challenges of the study. Exploring the possibilities revolves around image processing, where fingerprints served as image input and a deep learning convolutional neural network model implemented in the Inception-v3 architecture is used to analyze and classify different fingerprint patterns finally associate with the classified prints to its corresponding temperament type.
