Multimodal biometric systems have been widely used to achieve high recognition accuracy. This paper presents a new multimodal biometric system using intelligent technique to authenticate human by fusion of finger and dorsal hand veins pattern. We developed an image analysis technique to extract region of interest (ROI) from finger and dorsal hand veins image. After extracting ROI we design a sequence of preprocessing steps to improve finger and dorsal hand veins images using Median filter, Wiener filter and Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) to enhance vein image. Our smart technique is based on the following intelligent algorithms, namely; principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm for feature extraction and k-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) classifier for matching operation. The database chosen was the Shandong University Machine Learning and Applications - Homologous Multi-modal Traits (SDUMLA-HMT) and Bosphorus Hand Vein Database. The achieved result for the fusion of both biometric traits was Correct Recognition Rate (CRR) is 96.8%.

       There are many techniques for face recognition which compare the desired face image with a set of faces images stored in a database. Most of these techniques fail if faces images are exposed to high-density noise. Therefore, it is necessary to find a robust method to recognize the corrupted face image with a high density noise. In this work, face recognition algorithm was suggested by using the combination of de-noising filter and PCA. Many studies have shown that PCA has ability to solve the problem of noisy images and dimensionality reduction. However, in cases where faces images are exposed to high noise, the work of PCA in removing noise is useless, therefore adding a strong filter will help to improve the performance of recognizing faces in the case of existing high-density noise in faces images. In this paper, Median filter, Hybrid Median Filter, Adaptive Median filter, and Adaptive Weighted Mean Filter were used to remove the noise from the faces images, and they were compared in order to use the best of these filters as a pre-processing step before the face recognition process. Experimental results showed that the Adaptive Weighted Mean Filter gave better results compared with the other filters. Thus, the performance of face recognition process was improved under high-density noise using the Adaptive Weighted Mean Filter and Principal Component Analysis. For the corrupted images by 90 % noise density, Recognition rate by using Median Filter reached 0% and 33% by using Hybrid Median Filter. While Recognition rate by using the Adaptive Median Filter and Adaptive Weighted Mean Filter reached 100%.


With the onset of maximum power, modest figuring and more prominent unpredictability, biometric verification has turned out to be conceivable at each scale in light of its more secure nature and furthermore easy to use conduct. Compare to other biometrics, vein biometric is a decent verification characteristic among others. The dorsal hand vein recognition is an emerging biometric procedure which is utilized for verification purposes in many applications. In this work preprocessing is done by median filter and region of interest such as veins separated from the muscles and bones through adaptive Kmeans clustering algorithm.The proposed method extracts the dorsal hand vein pattern features by using LBP and Repeated Line Tracking algorithm.Finally recognition and authentication is done using Artificial Neural Network. Arduino and GSM technology is used in this work to set security preference for the particular user.In order to validate the proposed work , a total of 480 images of dorsal hand veins is involved in this work. In a comparison with four existingverification algorithms, the proposed method achieves thehighest accuracy with lowest error rate.

Biometrics is a technology for recognition under which Palm vein recognition stems. They are of crucial importance in various applications of high sensitivity. This article develops a palm vein recognition model, based on derived pattern and feature vectors. All the palm print images used in this work were obtained from CASIA Multi-Spectral Palmprint Image Database V1.0 (CASIA database). First, a Region of Interest (ROI) was identified and extracted from the palm print images. Next, Histogram Equalization was used to enhance the area of the palm print image in the Region of Interest. The enhanced image obtained was subjected to the Zhang Suen's Thinning Algorithm to extract appropriate features in the palm print images needed for authentication. The features derived based on this vascular pattern thinning algorithm which are then compared and evaluated to carry out ‘matching'. The Pattern Matching itself was done using the Euclidean Distance for subsequent matching. The model was designed using UML, and implemented with C# and MS SQL on Microsoft Visual Studio platform. The developed system was evaluated based on False Acceptance, False Rejection and Equal Error Rate (EER) values obtained from the system. The results of testing and evaluation show that the developed system has achieved high recognition accuracy.

Mobile implementation is a current trend in biometric design. This paper proposes a new approach to palm print recognition, in which smart phones are used to capture palm print images at a distance. A touchless system was developed because of public demand for privacy and sanitation. Robust hand tracking, image enhancement, and fast computation processing algorithms are required for effective touchless and mobile-based recognition. In this project, hand tracking and the region of interest (ROI) extraction method were discussed. A sliding neighborhood operation with local histogram equalization, followed by a local adaptive thresholding or LHEAT approach, was proposed in the image enhancement stage to manage low-quality palm print images. To accelerate the recognition process, a new classifier, improved fuzzy-basedknearest centroid neighbor (IFkNCN), was implemented. By removing outliers and reducing the amount of training data, this classifier exhibited faster computation. Our experimental results demonstrate that a touchless palm print system using LHEAT and IFkNCN achieves a promising recognition rate of 98.64%.

Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis profil nilai piksel pada citra USG Peripheral Alrterial Disease (PAD) dengan metode line profile, menghitung nilai SNR dan mengembangkan program peningkatan kualitas citra menggunakan berbagai algoritma filtering dan contrast enhancement. Metode penelitian yang digunakan bersifat eksperimental melalui pengumpulan data citra normal dan abnormal lalu peningkatan kualitas citra menggunakan 3 filtering yaitu median filter, gaussian filter, wiener filter dikombinasi dengan 3 contrast enhancement yaitu global histogram equalization, CLAHE (Contrast Limited Adaptif Histogram Equalitation) dan Intensity Adjustment. Kemudian hasil kombinasi tersebut dihitung nilai SNR. Pengolahan citra dilanjutkan dengan line profile yaitu membuat 5 garis disetiap anatomi aliran darah PAD menggunakan ImageJ. Hasil penelitian menunjukan, secara umum, nilai SNR terbesar yaitu kombinasi antara algoritma filtering gaussian dengan global histogram equalization baik pada citra normal dan abnormal. Sementara itu, profil garis (line profile) pada citra normal menghasilkan grafik berbentuk parabola dan profil garis citra abnormal membentuk distribusi gaussian. Profile berbentuk parabola memperlihatkan bahwa nilai piksel bagian tengah citra yang menunjukkan aliran darah lebih kecil dibanding sekitarnya, yang berarti tidak terdapat penyumbatan. Sementara itu, puncak di bagian tengah profil citra abnormal menandakan citra terdapat nilai piksel tinggi. Maka daerah piksel tinggi menunjukan sumbatan pada pembuluh darah.

The feasibility of using the fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic technique with a stacked sparse auto-encoder (SSAE) to identify orchid varieties was studied. Spectral data of 13 orchids varieties covering the spectral range of 4000–550 cm−1 were acquired to establish discriminant models and to select optimal spectral variables. K nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and SSAE models were built using full spectra. The SSAE model performed better than the KNN and SVM models and obtained a classification accuracy 99.4% in the calibration set and 97.9% in the prediction set. Then, three algorithms, principal component analysis loading (PCA-loading), competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), and stacked sparse auto-encoder guided backward (SSAE-GB), were used to select 39, 300, and 38 optimal wavenumbers, respectively. The KNN and SVM models were built based on optimal wavenumbers. Most of the optimal wavenumbers-based models performed slightly better than the all wavenumbers-based models. The performance of the SSAE-GB was better than the other two from the perspective of the accuracy of the discriminant models and the number of optimal wavenumbers. The results of this study showed that the FTIR spectroscopic technique combined with the SSAE algorithm could be adopted in the identification of the orchid varieties.
