Abstract :
The requirement for personal identification in computer based access control has resulted in an increased interest in biometrics. Recognition of the fingerprint becomes a complex computer vision problem while dealing with noisy and low quality images. The algorithm shown below is used for enhancement of fingerprint image using fuzzy logic. This paper proposes and describes the neuro-fuzzy based method for enhancement of the fingerprint image.
