  • Abstract
    One of the most reliable known methods of personal identification (besides DNA recognition) is the use of fingerprints of an individual. In the present paper it is sought to introduce a new method of personal identification through fingerprints by comparing two fingerprints (one known and the other unknown) by means of linguistic elements fuzzy comparison. For each fingerprint a linguistic expression will be generated from a type of grammar that will also be defined. The fuzzy comparison of the elements of these expressions will form the hit/no-hit between both fingerprints
