This paper proposes a novel image contrast enhancement method based on both a noise aware shadow-up function and Retinex (retina and cortex) decomposition. Under low light conditions, images taken by digital cameras have low contrast in…
Palm recognition has emerged as a dominant biometric authentication technology in critical infrastructure. These systems operate in either single-modal form, using palmprint or palmvein individually, or dual-modal form, fusing the two…
Finger vein pattern recognition is an emerging biometric with a good resistance to presentation attacks and low error rates. One problem is that it is hard to obtain ground truth finger vein patterns from live fingers. In this paper we…
