Multispectral Biometrics: Systems and Applications

Describing several, new biometric technologies, such as High resolution fingerprint, Finger-Knuckle-Print, Multi-Spectral Backhand, 3D fingerprint, Tongueprint, 3D ear, and Multi-Spectral Iris recognition technologies, this book analyzes a number of efficient feature extraction, matching and fusion algorithms and how potential systems have been developed. Focussing on how to develop a new biometric technology based on the requirement of applications, and how to design efficient algorithms to get better performance, the work is based on the author's research with experimental results under different challenging conditions included in the text. This book will be of benefit to the researchers, professionals and post graduate students working in the field of computer vision, pattern recognition, biometrics, and security applications, amongst others.
