Abstract :
This work presents a multimodal biometrics system that combines face and fingerprint authentication modules. The proposed face verification module incorporates Gabor Wavelet texture features and face edge features. As for the fingerprint module, a simple algorithm is employed for extracting fingers´ Minutia in order to build feature vector for each sample fingerprint. The proposed system can be used effectively for personal identification at international airports checkpoints.
