Abstract :
A hierarchial classification and identification model for fingerprint matching is presented. The proposed system categorizes the fingerprint into initial classes. The model uses enhanced fingerprints obtained by frequency domain processing as input, and classifies them with an unsupervised neural network. Finally, the identification is performed within these classes using another neural network with different features. The model is tested for several fingerprints, the result are analyzed and discussed
