Robust and Highly Secured Palm Print Identification System for Biometric Authentication
Authors
Abstract
For securing personal identifications and highly secure identification problems, biometric technologies will provide higher security with improved accuracy. This has become an emerging technology in recent years due to the transaction frauds, security breaches and personal identification etc. The beauty of biometric technology is it provides a unique code for each person and it can't be copied or forged by others. These systems are getting wide acceptance in the networked society, replacing passwords and keys due to its reliability, uniqueness and the ever increasing in security demand. Generally, we have finger print Biometric systems in now a days, but there are many chances to copy one's finger prints without knowing him. There by, we can make a forgery to authorize his personal accounts, computers and even drawing cash form ATM's etc. To overcome the draw backs of finger print identification systems, here in this paper we proposed a palm print based personal identification system, which is a most promising and emerging research area in biometric identification systems due to its uniqueness, scalability, faster execution speed and large area for extracting the features. It provides higher security over finger print biometric systems with its rich features like wrinkles, continuous ridges, principal lines, minutiae points, and singular points. The main aim of proposed palm print identification system is to implement a system with higher accuracy and increased speed in identifying the palm prints of several users. Here, in this we presented a highly secured palm print identification system with extraction of region of interest (ROI) with morphological operation there by applying un-decimated bi-orthogonal wavelet (UDBW) transform to extract the low level features of registered palm prints to calculate its feature vectors (FV) then after the comparison is done by measuring the distance between registered palm feature vector and testing palm print feature vector. Simulation results show that the proposed biometric identification system provides more accuracy and reliable recognition rate.
