Deepak Vishwakarma, Deepak Gupta . An Improved Fingerprint Recognition System using the Concept of Distance Vector. International Conference on Advances in Computer Engineering and Applications. ICACEA, 5 (March 2014), 28-31.
A new feature for fingerprint images is introduced. This new feature is named as Distance Vector. A Distance Vector counts the minutiae points in each row of a particular fingerprint image. A Distance Vector is associated with every fingerprint in the database. At the time of enrollment this feature is stored with the concerned fingerprint and at the time of matching this feature is matched with the Distance Vector of each fingerprint in the template database. This process increases the reliability of the fingerprint recognition task. In the first stages, image normalization and orientation of the ridges are estimated.
