Abstract
In order to extract better vein feathers, image preprocessing is necessary. So this paper propose a new approach to enhance images. The enhancement algorithm uses guided filter (GF) to process hand vein images. The guided filter is used as an edge-preserving smoothing operator. The guided filter enhancement algorithm is effective comparing with bilateral filter (BF), histogram equalization (HE), adaptive histogram equalization algorithm (AHE) and contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE). We use several methods to enhance dorsal hand vein images, the recognition rate with guided filter is the best. For the security, a fake vein detection algorithm is used to discriminate the real vein and fake vein images.
