Abstract

Since hand-print recognition, i.e., palmprint, finger-knuckle-print (FKP), and hand-vein, have significant superiority in user convenience and hygiene, it has attracted greater enthusiasm from researchers. Seeking to handle the long-standing interference factors, i.e., noise, rotation, shadow, in hand-print images, multi-view hand-print representation has been proposed to enhance the feature expression by exploiting multiple characteristics from diverse views. However, the existing methods usually ignore the high-order correlations between different views or fuse very limited types of features. To tackle these issues, in this paper, we present a novel tensorized multi-view low-rank approximation based robust hand-print recognition method (TMLA_RHR), which can dexterously manipulate the multi-view hand-print features to produce a high-compact feature representation. To achieve this goal, we formulate TMLA_RHR by two key components, i.e., aligned structure regression loss and tensorized low-rank approximation, in a joint learning model. Specifically, we treat the low-rank representation matrices of different views as a tensor, which is regularized with a low-rank constraint. It models the across information between different views and reduces the redundancy of the learned sub-space representations. Experimental results on eight real-world hand-print databases prove the superiority of the proposed method in comparison with other state-of-the-art related works.
