Minutiae extraction is a critical step in fingerprint identification, so it is important to find a proper approach to extract minutiae. In this paper, we propose a new method which extracts minutiae via principal curves. At first, we get a group of principal curves which reflect the structural features of the fingerprint; then we extract minutiae of fingerprint from these principal curves. From the result of experiment, we conclude that this new approach is feasible. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2004.
