Recognition of Vein Patterns for Biometric Identification based on Gabor Filters
Author:
Abstract: Vein recognition is one of many available methods used for identification. Veins possess several properties that make a good biometric feature for personal identification: 1) they are difficult to damage and modify; 2) they are difficult to simulate using a fake template; and 3) vein information can represent the liveness of person. We present the results of the recognition of veins patterns that show the suitability of the method for biometric identification purposes.
