Abstract

Sweat pores have been proved to be discriminative and successfully used for automatic fingerprint recognition. It is crucial to extract pores precisely to achieve high recognition accuracy. To extract pores accurately and robustly, we propose a novel coarse-to-fine detection method based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) and logical operation. More specifically, pore candidates are coarsely estimated using logical operation at first; then, coarse pore candidates are further judged through well-trained CNN models; precise pore locations are finally refined by logical and morphological operation. The experimental results evaluated on the public dataset show that the proposed method outperforms other state-of-the-art methods in comparison.
