Abstract |
A simple multimodal fingerprint recognition method based on two types of feature vectors such as minutiae points and directional features is proposed, where Directional Filter Bank (DFB) is used to extract directional features. Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively combine minutiae- and DFB-based methods and produce a better matching capability in the poor quality fingerprint image. |
