As a biometric modality, palmprints have been largely under-utilized, but they offer some
advantages over fingerprints and facial biometrics. Recent improvements in imaging …

The usage of touchless palmprint recognition (PPR) increases due to its acceptant
interaction mode. However, the region of interest (ROI) localization at a distance is quite …

This paper presents recent advances in biometric recognition, where we focus on face,
fingerprint and iris recognition, which are major research topics on biometric recognition. We …

With the rapid development of mobile devices, smartphones have gradually become an
indispensable part of people's lives. Meanwhile, biometric authentication has been …

Palmprint identification aims to establish the identity of a given query sample by comparing it
with all the templates in the database and locating the most similar one. It becomes …

Compared with other biometrics, palmprint has several advantages in authentication on
mobile devices. However, some serious challenges severely restrict the development of …

Extracting a palm region with fixed location from an input hand image is a crucial task for
palmprint recognition to realise reliable person authentication under contactless and …

In this work the use of palmprints as an alternative biometric for smartphones is investigated
and its feasibility is evaluated across multiple devices using unconstrained acquisition. A …

We address the problem of comparing fingerphotos, fingerprint images from a commodity
smartphone camera, with the corresponding legacy slap contact-based fingerprint images …

Limited processing power, hand pose variations, complicated backgrounds and changing
illumination are some of the inherent problems in mobile palmprint recognition. In this paper …
