Palm Print Based Person Identification

Abstract

Palm print is a unique and reliable biometric characteristic with high usability. With the increasing demand of highly accurate and robust palm print authentication system, multispectral imaging has been employed to acquire more discriminative information and increase the anti spoof capability of palm print. The experimentation for this project is done using PolyU palm print Database. Palm print images were collected from 250volunteers, including 195 males and 55 females. The palm print features are extracted using stockwell transform. Some of the significant results have accuracy of 99% and precision 91%.
