Towards Accurate Estimation of Fingerprint Ridge Orientation Using BPNN and Ternarization
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2013, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
Accurate estimation of ridge orientation is a crucial step in fingerprint image enhancement because the performance of a minutiae extraction algorithm and matching heavily relies on the quality of the input fingerprint images, which in turn relies on proper estimation of ridge orientation. When ridge structure is not clear in a noisy fingerprint image, ridge orientation estimation becomes tough and it is considered as one of the most challenging tasks in fingerprint image enhancement process.
