Deep-analysis of palmprint representation based on correlation concept for human biometrics identification

Abstract

The security of people requires a beefy guarantee in our society, particularly, with the spread of terrorism throughout the world. In this context, palmprint identification based on texture analysis is amongst the pattern recognition applications to recognize people. In this article, the researchers investigated a deep texture analysis for the palmprint texture pattern representation based on a fusion between several texture information extractions through multiple descriptors, such as HOG and Gabor Filters, Fractal dimensions and GLCM corresponding respectively to the frequency, model, and statistical methodologies-based texture features. They assessed the proposed deep texture analysis method as well as the applicability of the dimensionality reduction techniques and the correlation concept between the features-based fusion on the challenging PolyU, CASIA and IIT-Delhi Palmprint databases. The experimental results show that the fusion of different texture types using the correlation concept for palmprint modality identification leads to promising results.
