Abstract :
A prototype fingerprint verification system is described which combines the direction and density images into a complex pseudo-spectrum. Two methods for extracting the direction and density images are presented. The proposed feature extraction method is shown to be fast, efficient and robust Verification is achieved by correlation matching.
