Texture-based fingerprint recognition methods are generally more accurate than other methods, but at the disadvantage of increased storage requirements. The low storage requirements for a low resolution texture-based fingerprint recognition method known as FingerCode enables the combined use of fingerprints with the additional security of other devices such as smartcards. The low recognition accuracy of FingerCode is addressed using a novel texture alignment technique. As a result, an improved recognition accuracy is achieved without increasing storage requirementsenFeature extractionFingerprint recognitionReliabilityIndexesSecurityConference PresentationBrown, D., & Bradshaw, K.
