Abstract :
One of the current trends in biometric human identification is the development of new emerging modalities. One of such promising modalities is knuckle biometrics. In this paper new developments in human identification based on knuckle biometrics are presented. The major contribution of this paper are texture-based knuckle features and their evaluation using IIT Delhi knuckle image database.
