A digital image processing based bio-identification application from planum nasale of Kangal dogs

In this study, digital image processing based bio-identification application is realized to analyze of nose-print for Kangal dogs. First of all, the image is filtered and the masks for each image is get by using threshold value of the image. And then, when the mask is applied on the image,the algorithms of creating triangle and finding number of circle like shapes by finding angle values of three biggest holes in nose- print with location of holes were applied on the remained data. As a conclusion, statistics results are very different from each other. It is because of the face that the images are unique within themselves. In this study, the nose-prints of ten Kangal dogs are taken in the control of a vet.
