%0 Journal Article %T Enhancement of Fingerprint Extraction: Algorithms and Performance Evaluation %A Priti Jain H. K. Sawant %J International Journal of Electronics Communication and Computer Engineering %D 2012 %I IJECCE %X The fingerprint recognition problem can be grouped into two sub-domains: one is fingerprint verification and the other is fingerprint identification. In addition, different from the manual approach for fingerprint recognition by experts, the fingerprint recognition here is referred as Fingerprint Recognition System, which is program-based. Fingerprint verification is to verify the authenticity of one person by his fingerprint. The user provides his fingerprint together with his identity information like his ID number. The fingerprint verification system retrieves the fingerprint template according to the ID number and matches the template with the real-time acquired fingerprint from the user. Usually it is the underlying design principle of Fingerprint Authentication System. %K Fingerprint Recognition %K Enhancement Of Image %K Segementation Of Image %K Minutia Extraction %K Matching Minutia %U http://www.ijecce.org/administrator/components/com_jresearch/files/publications/IJECCE-322_priti%20jain_Enhancement%20of%20Fingerprint%20Extraction%20%20Algorithms%20and%20Performance%20Evaluation.pdf
