Palmprint is one of the most reliable physiological characteristics that can be used to distinguish between individuals. Palmprint recognition process consists of image acquisition, pre-processing, feature extraction, matching and result. One of the most important stages in these methods is pre-processing which contains some operations such as filtering, Region Of Interest (ROI) extraction, normalization. This paper provides a survey on various different methods to segmentation of palmprint into ROI and extraction of principle lines. ROI segmentation of palmprint is to automatically and reliably segment a small region from the captured palmprintimage.We pay more attention towards more essential stage of palm localization, segmentation and ROI extraction. Finally some conclusion and suggestion is offered.

Identification and verification are the fundamental process in biometrics recognition system. Research indicates that palmprint, as one of the biometric recognitions system is commonly used for human identification. It is because there are many features and information contained inside the palmprint that can be used in the identification process. However, only a small region of the palmprint can be extracted using the existing palmprint region of interest (ROI) extraction algorithms. This has become a problem for identification systems due to negligible and loss of important features which are located outside the ROI. Hence, it is a necessity to improve the palmprint ROI extraction algorithm whereby bigger palmprint ROI can be extracted using this algorithm. Therefore, a larger fixed size extraction algorithm for palmprint ROI is proposed where the extraction region is larger so that more important identification features can be captured inside these ROIs. The performance between proposed and existing extraction algorithms are tested based on two characteristics which are the palmprint ROI extraction area and the comparison of feature creases extracted in a palmprint ROI. The results show that 300x300 fixed size ROI is able to capture 13 out of 14 creases attributes for palmprint identification. This implies that the proposed extraction algorithm shows a promising method of extraction as compared to the existing algorithms.

This paper introduces a new technique for palmprint recognition based on Fisher Linear Discriminant Analysis (FLDA) and Gabor filter bank. This method involves convolving a palmprint image with a bank of Gabor filters at different scales and rotations for robust palmprint features extraction. Once these features are extracted, FLDA is applied for dimensionality reduction and class separability. Since the palmprint features are derived from the principal lines, wrinkles and texture along the palm area. One should carefully consider this fact when selecting the appropriate palm region for the feature extraction process in order to enhance recognition accuracy. To address this problem, an improved region of interest (ROI) extraction algorithm is introduced. This algorithm allows for an efficient extraction of the whole palm area by ignoring all the undesirable parts, such as the fingers and background. Experiments have shown that the proposed method yields attractive performances as evidenced by an Equal Error Rate (EER) of 0.03%.

Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is a powerful tool for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases. The output of this tool is in video with a length of about eight hours, containing about 8000 frames. It is a difficult task for a physician to review all of the video frames. In this paper, a new abnormality detection system for WCE images is proposed. The proposed system has four main steps: (1) preprocessing, (2) region of interest (ROI) extraction, (3) feature extraction, and (4) classification. In ROI extraction, at first, distinct areas are highlighted and nondistinct areas are faded by using the joint normal distribution; then, distinct areas are extracted as an ROI segment by considering a threshold. The main idea is to extract abnormal areas in each frame. Therefore, it can be used to extract various lesions in WCE images. In the feature extraction step, three different types of features (color, texture, and shape) are employed. Finally, the features are classified using the support vector machine. The proposed system was tested on the Kvasir-Capsule dataset. The proposed system can detect multiple lesions from WCE frames with high accuracy.

Multispectral palmprint recognition system (MPRS) is an essential technology for effective human identification and verification tasks. To improve the accuracy and performance of MPRS, a novel approach based on autoencoder (AE) and regularized extreme learning machine (RELM) is proposed in this paper. The proposed approach is intended to make the recognition faster by reducing the number of palmprint features without degrading the accuracy of classifier. To achieve this objective, first, the region of interest (ROI) from palmprint images is extracted by David Zhang’s method. Second, an efficient normalized Gist (NGist) descriptor is used for palmprint feature extraction. Then, the dimensionality of extracted features is reduced using optimized AE. Finally, the reduced features are fed to the RELM for classification. A comprehensive set of experiments are conducted on the benchmark MS-PolyU dataset. The results were significantly high compared to the state-of-the-art approaches, and the robustness and efficiency of the proposed approach are revealed.

In this paper, a method of palmprint segmentation and location is proposed. The proposed method focuses on region of interest (ROI) extraction of palmprint images which involve transition and rotation. Firstly, binary of palmprint image is used to define the edge of palmprint. Then we separate the fingers and palms and find the two valley points of the index finger and middle finger, ring finger and little finger. Finally, rotate image based on the two valley points and correct image position and create coordinate system according to valley points to determine ROI. This method provides a necessary preprocessing for further feature extraction and matching.The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified using the PolyU palmprint database.

Palmprint verification is one of the most significant and popular approaches for personal authentication due to its high accuracy and efficiency. Using deep region of interest (ROI) and feature extraction models for palmprint verification, a novel approach is proposed where convolutional neural networks (CNNs) along with transfer learning are exploited. The extracted palmprint ROIs are fed to the final verification system, which is composed of two modules. These modules are (i) a pre-trained CNN architecture as a feature extractor and (ii) a machine learning classifier. In order to evaluate our proposed model, we computed the intersection over union (IoU) metric for ROI extraction along with accuracy, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and equal error rate (EER) for the verification task.The experiments demonstrated that the ROI extraction module could significantly find the appropriate palmprint ROIs, and the verification results were crucially precise. This was verified by different databases and classification methods employed in our proposed model. In comparison with other existing approaches, our model was competitive with the state-of-the-art approaches that rely on the representation of hand-crafted descriptors. We achieved a IoU score of 93% and EER of 0.0125 using a support vector machine (SVM) classifier for the contact-based Hong Kong Polytechnic University Palmprint (HKPU) database. It is notable that all codes are open-source and can be accessed online.
