Abstract

Biometrics is automated tool of recognizing a person depends on physiological or behavioral characteristics. A palm vein is a new member of pattern recognition and biometrics family, has attracted much of the research attention. This paper discusses about the image enhancement operation such as histogram equalization, de-correlation stretch, and contrast stretch etc. which results a quite enhanced palm vein image. The enhanced palm vein image analysis is framed using 2-D wavelet tools and a comparison based on statistical data of these images is shown. The paper also discusses about the usefulness of 2-D wavelet tool for image analysis.
