Abstract

Fingerprints are one of the simplest and most reliable human biometric features for identification. Geometry of the fingerprint is fractal and we can classify a fingerprint database with fractal dimension, but one can't identify a fingerprint with fractal dimension uniquely. In this paper we present a new approach for identifying fingerprint uniquely; for this purpose a new fractal is initially made from a fingerprint by using Fractal theory and Chaos Game theory. While making the new fractal, five parameters that can be used in identification process can be achieved. Finally a fractal is made for each fingerprint, and then by analyzing the new fractal and parameters obtained by Chaos Game, fingerprint identification can be performed. We called this method Fingerprint Fractal Identification System (FFIS). The presented method besides having features of fractals such as stability against turning, magnifying, deleting a part of image, etc. also has a desirable speed.
