Abstract

A method for measuring deformations inside single fingerprint images is presented. State-of-the-art fingerprint recognition systems still use affine, to scale represented images. Therefore, image data from so-called sweep sensors is reconstructed to obtain conventional images. Measuring the deformation of fingerprint images facilitates other matching approaches not requiring the finger speed information, e.g. using directly concatenated slice images. Furthermore, fingerprint image compression can be realized by deleting similar content since the images can be reconstructed using deformation measurement.
