Fingerprints are the one of the most important means in the forensics as a means of identification of the criminals owning to the uniqueness and the distinct features in them. Fingerprint identification is considered as ...

This paper proposes novel exclusive and continuous approaches to guide the search and the retrieval in fingerprint image databases. Both approaches are useful to perform a coarse level classification of fingerprint images ...

Despite the efficacy of minutia-based fingerprint matching techniques for good-quality images captured by optical sensors, minutia-based techniques do not often perform so well on poor-quality images or fingerprint images ...

Abstract. Due to the large size that fingerprint databases generally have, the reduction of the search space is indispensable. In the resolution of this problem, indexing algorithms have a fundamental role. In ...

Fingerprint is one of the simplest and most reliable biometric features of human for identification. In this study by using fractal theory and by the assistance of Chaos Game a new fractal is made from fingerprint. While ...

Latent fingerprints are routinely found at crime scenes due to the inadvertent contact of the criminals' finger tips with various objects. As such, they have been used as crucial evidence for identifying and convicting ...
