Abstract
Directional pattern is a representation of original fingerprint image. This paper proposes one algorithm based on direction mean value difference to detect fingerprint center point. To realize this algorithm mainly includes detecting point direction of each pixel and configuring block patterns with 8×8 and 16×16 ranges. Experimental results show the algorithm has good robustness and can easily wipe off the false center point detected from the fingerprints.
