Hand vein authentication based wavelet feature extraction (original) (raw)

Biometrics is a growing scientific field. It aims to identify, through technological systems, an individual, using biological characteristics (eg details of hand, iris, ear, hand lines, fingerprints, gait, posture,). The Using of this technique is now generalized worldwide and takes an important place in everyday life. In the coming years, biometrics will probably be one of the techniques used, first to identify or authenticate individuals and also to control and manage access to material resources, particularly in the following sectors: banking, airports, bus and railway stations, hospitals, private and public institutions, homes, smart cars, museums, ...).The aim of our study is to build a dorsal hand vein database and test our approach on it. Just like any recognition system this last is composed of four steps: the acquisition, enhancement, feature extraction and classification. This paper presents the building protocol of a new database SAB11 BIOM14. Applying some enhancement on...
