Abstract :
Image preprocessing is an important step in the area of image processing and pattern recognition. In this paper we present a CNN image preprocessing algorithm which is especially suited for fingerprint recognition. It is applied to real gray-scale noisy fingerprints. The results demonstrate the advantage of the proposed algorithm
