Abstract

Although palmprint based authentication approaches have shown promising results recently, efforts are still required to achieve higher performance with low time complexity for their use in real-life high security applications. Based on these requirements, the concept of two level matching scheme using line matching in Hough space and Curve segment Hausdorff Distance (CsHD) are explored and developed for speedy and accurate palmprint identification in this paper. This method combines the advantages of both local and global feature approaches, which is able to not only absorb the variance of palmprints by transforming the palmprint pattern into a new domain, but also overcome the problem of high computation complexity when the database size increases. The system employs low-resolution palmprint images captured by normal digital camera and achieves higher identification accuracy with lower time complexity.
