Description
Summary:Multimodal biometric systems are preferred as a defense compared to unimodal systems. This study introduces an open access multimodal vein database named FYO with each letter dedicated to each author's name. The database involves three biometric traits; palm vein, dorsal vein and wrist vein of the same individuals, to explore and enhance research in the area of using these traits to create a spoof-proof multimodal authentication system. The vein images of FYO are acquired using medical vein finder in a controlled environment. Comparisons are performed to show the differences with the existing well known databases and the state-of-the-art recognition algorithms. Hand-crafted feature extractors such as Binarized Statistical Image Features (BSIF), Gabor filter and Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) are applied to show the viability of the vein datasets. Additionally, a deep learning based Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) architecture is proposed with two models using decision-level fusion of palmar, dorsal and wrist biometric traits on vein images. Unimodal systems, multimodal systems and the proposed architecture are tested on several vein datasets including palmar, dorsal and wrist vein images. Experimental results based on accuracy and computation time on our FYO datasets showed competitive output with that of other databases such as Tongji Contactless Palm Vein database, VERA, PUT, Badawi and Bosphorus hand vein databases. Moreover, the proposed CNN architecture on three vein biometric traits show superior performance compared to hand-crafted methods.
