Design of Contactless Hand Biometric System With Relative Geometric Parameters

Abstract: The main concern in contactless biometric system is the position of the hand that may vary relatively to camera. This variation of position  result  in  different  parameters  of  hand  geometry  captured  from  the  same  person,  in  different  time,  which  is  a  serious problem  in  identification  process.  This  paper  presents  a  novel  contactless  biometric  verification  system  based  on  relative geometric  parameters  of  the  hand,  as  the  biometric  feature.  A  webcam  captured  color  image  of  the  hand,  which  will  be transformed  into  binary  image  for  segmentation,  based  on  thresholding  technique.  Binary  image  was  extracted  to  get  nine absolute  geometrical  sizes.  The  relative  geometric  parameters  derived  from  ratios  between  those  geometrical  sizes  were calculated. Feature extraction was processed by scanning technique. Matching was conducted based on match score, which is the output result by feeding relative geometric parameters to backpropagation-trained artificial neural network. Our design provided accuracy  of  87.237%,  precision  of  85.798%,  False  Match  Rate  (FMR)  of  14.780%,  and  False  Non  Match  Rate  (FNMR)  of 10.747%.
