Abstract :
Fingerprint verification systems are very convenient and secure. However, existing systems can cause errors according to size and quality of fingerprint images that are read only with a use of minutiae. This paper enhanced security performance by decreasing false match rate(FMR) through a fingerprint verification system for which both minutiae and ridge information are used. As a result, we found that ZeroFMR decreased from 29% to 9.9%, which indicates enhanced security performance.
