The Biosecure Geometry-based System for Hand Modality.
We present an identification and authentification system based on
hand modality which is part of a reference system for all modalities
developed within the Biosecure consortium. It relies on simple
geometric features extracted from hand boundary. The different steps
of this system are detailed, namely: pre-processing, feature
extraction and hand matching. This system has been tested on the
Biosecure hand database which consists of 4500 hand images of 750
individuals. Results are detailed with respect to different enrolment
conditions such as population size, enrolment size, and image
resolution.
