Hybrid model for human Identification and recognition system Using hand geometry and palmprint

Abstract

The adoption of automatic authentication system is gaining newlinemomentum and more focus Reliability in the personal authentication is the newlinekey to the security in the networked society Many physiological newlinecharacteristics of human biometrics are typically time invariant easy to newlineacquire and unique for every individual Biometric features such as face iris newlinefingerprint hand geometry palmprint signature etc have been suggested for newlinethe security in access control Most of the current researches in biometrics newlinehave been focused on fingerprint and face The reliability of personal newlineidentification using face is currently low as the researchers today continue to newlinegrapple with the problems of pose lighting orientation and gesture newlineFingerprint identification is widely used in personal identification as it has newlineworked well in most cases in the past However, it is difficult to acquire newlinefingerprint features minutiae for certain class of persons such as manual newlinelabourers elderly people etc As a result other biometric characteristics are newlinereceiving increasing attention Moreover additional biometric features such newlineas palmprints can be easily integrated with the existing authentication system newlineto provide enhanced level of confidence in personal authentication newline newline
