Abstract

Identification is an essential part of our lives. Identification of authentic candidate is essential in E-commerce, in keeping track of criminals, in airport and railway surveillance and many more aspects of the modern world. In this paper an approach has been proposed combining the knuckle and fingerprint biometrics for the purpose of identification of a person using SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform).
