  2. Fingerprint (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fingerprint_(computing)

    To serve its intended purposes, a fingerprinting algorithm must be able to capture the identity of a file with virtual certainty. In other words, the probability of a collision — two files yielding the same fingerprint — must be negligible, compared to the probability of other unavoidable causes of fatal errors (such as the system being destroyed by war or by a meteorite): say, 10 −20 or ...

  3. Automated fingerprint identification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_fingerprint...

    Automated fingerprint verification is a closely related technique used in applications such as attendance and access control systems. On a technical level, verification systems verify a claimed identity (a user might claim to be John by presenting his PIN or ID card and verify his identity using his fingerprint), whereas identification systems ...

  4. Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_Automated...

    Scanning forms ("fingerprint cards") with a forensic AFIS complies with standards established by the FBI and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). To match a print, a fingerprint technician scans in the print in question, and computer algorithms are utilized to mark all minutia points, cores, and deltas detected on the print ...

  5. Biometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biometrics

    The Encryption fingerprint template is encrypted using the palm vein key via XOR operations. This encrypted Fingerprint is hidden within the face image using steganographic techniques. Enrollment and Verification for the Biometric data (Fingerprint, palm vein, face) are captured, encrypted, and embedded into a face image.

  6. Wavelet scalar quantization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavelet_Scalar_Quantization

    The Wavelet Scalar Quantization algorithm (WSQ) is a compression algorithm used for gray-scale fingerprint images. It is based on wavelet theory and has become a standard for the exchange and storage of fingerprint images.

  7. Henry Classification System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Classification_System

    The Henry Classification System is a long-standing method by which fingerprints are sorted by physiological characteristics for one-to-many searching. Developed by Hem Chandra Bose, [1] Qazi Azizul Haque [2] and Sir Edward Henry in the late 19th century for criminal investigations in British India, [3] it was the basis of modern-day AFIS (Automated Fingerprint Identification System ...

  8. Biometric device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biometric_device

    Fingerprint sensors can be found on mobile devices. The fingerprint sensor is used to unlock the device and authorize actions, like money and file transfers, for example. It can be used to prevent a device from being used by an unauthorized person. It is also used in attendance in number of colleges and universities.

  9. Next Generation Identification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Next_Generation_Identification

    The project's goal is to expand the capabilities of the Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System (IAFIS), which is currently used by law enforcement to identify subjects by their fingerprints and to look up their criminal history. The NGI system will be a more modular system (allowing easy expandability).
