A Survey on Palmprint Recognition

Parmeshwar Manegopale

Biometric recognition refers to an automatic recognition of individuals based on a feature vector(s) derived from their physiological and/or behavioral characteristic. Palmprint recognition is one of the popular methods which has been investigated over last fifteen years due to its several advantages such as stable line features, low-resolution imaging, low-cost capturing device, and user-friendly. This paper is an attempt which provides an overview of current palmprint research, explaining in particular capture devices, preprocessing, verification algorithms, and palmprintrelated fusion. Various palmprint recognition methods are compared and finally future directions are discussed.
