Fingerprint classification is still a challenging problem due to large intra-class variability, small inter-class variability and the presence of noise. To deal with these difficulties, we propose a regularized orientation diffusion model for fingerprint orientation extraction and a hierarchical classifier for fingerprint classification in this paper. The proposed classification algorithm is composed of five cascading stages. The first stage rapidly distinguishes a majority of Arch by using… CONTINUE READING
