Abstract

We compare the success rate of discrimination of 100 in-class and out-of-class database fingerprints by cross-correlation and by ring-wedge feature extraction. Cross-correlation was done by getting correlation peak values for test and target prints, while ring-wedge features were used to classify the prints using the least-squares method. Ring-wedge sampling was seen to classify in-class fingerprints better, with a recognition accuracy of 82.11%, against 26.32% for correlation.
