Abstract
Human fingerprint is unique to every person and can be used easily for identification purposes. People leave fingerprints almost everywhere and that's why using fingerprint databases for investigation is so common. Fingerprints can be used in many important and vital applications: providing vital security, and sometimes fingerprint may be distorted (deformed) because it was taken from somewhere where the place was wood plank, wall or door hand, so we need to enhance the image, in this paper we will introduce LBP enhancement for better minutiae detection and counting, and it will be showed how to construct a fingerprint identifier (features) to be used later as a key to retrieve or recognize the fingerprint.
Highlights
From the beginning of time to the current present day, data security systems have been a matter of interest and concern to everyone looking to protect vital and important data
We can see the following facts: - The process of minutiae detection was succeeded for all fingerprints. - Each row in table 5 (Isolated points, Ridge ending, Continuing point, Bifurcation, and Number of various minutiae) is a unique, so we can use each of them as a features to retrieve or recognize the fingerprint. - Local binary pattern (LBP) histogram equalized image method can be recommended as an input image for fingerprints minutiae counting and detection
Several fingerprints segments were selected, a matlab code was written and implemented, and table 8 shows the results of detecting the number of minutiae and the counts for the most appearing in the image minutiae: From table 8 we can see the following facts: - The process of minutiae detection was succeeded for all fingerprints. - Each row in table 5 (Isolated points, Ridge ending, Continuing point, Bifurcation, and Number of various minutiae) is a unique, so we can use each of them as a features to retrieve or recognize the fingerprint. - LBP histogram equalized image method can be recommended as an input image for fingerprints minutiae counting and detection
Summary
From the beginning of time to the current present day, data security systems have been a matter of interest and concern to everyone looking to protect vital and important data. Gates, and watchtowers were some of the safety system used at that time and these days are still to secure our home, office, or workplace that required security from an unwanted hacker [1], [2]. These secure and safety systems have changed by the time, and they guarantee the latest technology to make this safety safer. Human fingerprint is unique to every person and can be used for identification purposes.
