The success of human authentication depends on high speed and accuracy. This paper proposed an integrated approach of personal authentication using texture based Finger Knuckle Print (FKP) recognition in multiresolution domain. FKP images are rich in texture patterns. Recently, many texture patterns are proposed for biometric feature extraction. Hence, it is essential to review whether Local Binary Patterns or its variants perform well for FKP recognition. In this paper, Local Directional Pattern (LDP), Local Derivative Ternary Pattern (LDTP) and Local Texture Description Framework based Modified Local Directional Pattern (LTDF_MLDN) based feature extraction in multiresolution domain are experimented with Nearest Neighbor and Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) Classifier for FKP recognition. Experiments were conducted on PolYU database. The result shows that LDTP in Contourlet domain achieves a promising performance. It also proves that Soft classifier performs better than the hard classifier.展开更多

The quarter sample shift (Q-shift) DT-CWT can provide a group delay of 1/4 of a sample period, and satisfy the usual 2-band filter bank constraints of no aliasing and perfect reconstruction. To resolve illumination variation in expression verification, low-frequency coefficients produced by DT-CWT are set zeroes, high-frequency coefficients are used for reconstructing the image, and basic LBP histogram is mapped on the reconstructed image by means of histogram specification. LBP is capable of encoding texture and shape information of the preprocessed images. The histogram graphs built from multi-scale rotation invariant LBPs are combined to serve as feature for further recognition. Template matching is adopted to classify facial expressions for its simplicity. The experimental results show that the proposed approach has good performance in efficiency and accuracy.展开更多
