Improvement of the Fingerprint Recognition Process

Abstract

The increased development of IT tools and social communication networks has significantly increased the need for people to be identified with reliable and secure tools hence the importance of using biometric technology. Biometrics is an emerging field where technology improves our ability to identify a person. The advantage of biometric identification is that each individual has its own physical characteristics that cannot be changed, lost or stolen. The use of fingerprinting is today one of the most reliable technologies on the market to authenticate an individual. This technology is simple to use and easy to implement. The techniques of fingerprint recognition are numerous and diversified, they are generally based on generic algorithms and tools for filtering images. This article proposes a fingerprint recognition chain by highlighting improved processing tools to facilitate data retrieval. The results are retrieved and validated using Matlab.

Improved Fingerprint Recognition System Using Filtering Techniques

“…The achieved result of fingerprint recognition depends on two main points the captured image quality and the processor used to process the images. The results are repossessed and applicable by using programming tool MATLAB [5].…”
