However, due to the limit of current imaging technologies and instruments, recognition and matching of fingerprints are mostly based on their level 2 structures（bifurcation, crossover, and etc.）.Moreover, in real-world cases, fingerprints collected in the field are often incomplete or damaged, which adds further difficulty in fingerprint analysis. Quantum dots（QDs） are superior fluorescent imaging agents for latent fingerprints, which can provide both level 2 and level 3（sweat pores） details. Here, we used red-emitting N-acetylcysteine-capped Cd Te QDs as imaging agent for staining of eccrine LFPs. The numbers of level 2 and level 3 features that can be mapped are significantly larger than those obtained by cyanoacrylate fuming, a standard technique being adopted at forensic scene. Therefore, the level 2 and level 3 characteristics from QD-staining were simultaneously extracted for improved fingerprint analysis.A preliminary fingerprint matching based modified Pore Matching algorithm was thus developed based on the integration of both level 2 and level 3 characteristics. Satisfactory results of fingerprint matching were obtained, demonstrating the advantage of the QD-staining for advanced fingerprint analysis.展开更多

After determining the number of the customers and the length of the watermark string, this method chooses some values inside the digital image using a characteristic function, and adds watermarks to these values in a way that can protect the product against the attacks happened by comparing two fingerprinted copies.The watermarks are a string of binary numbers -1s and 1s. Every customer will be distinguished by a series of 1s and -1s generated by a pseudo-random generator. The owner of the image can determine the number of customers and the length of the string as well as this method will add another watermarking values to watermark string to protect the product.展开更多

When used for de-noising the fingerprint image, the nonlocal means method can not preserve the local minutiae in the fingerprint image very well. To address this problem, we propose a local orientation field based nonlocal means (NLM-LOF) method in this paper. Experimental results on the simulated and real images show that the proposed method can suppress noise effectively while preserving edges and details in the fingerprint image and it outperforms the state-of-art nonlocal means method in terms of qualitative metrics and visual comparisons.展开更多

This step has no relation with the well-known matting equation and only compares color differences between the current unknown pixel and those known pixels. These newly classified pure pixels are then fed to the matting process as samples to improve the quality of the final matte. However, in the research field of image matting, the importance of pre-processing step is still blurry. Moreover, there are no corresponding review articles for this step, and the quantitative comparison of Trimap and alpha mattes after this step still remains unsolved. In this paper, the necessity and the importance of pre-processing step in image matting are firstly discussed in details. Next, current pre-processing methods are introduced by using the following two categories： static thresholding methods and dynamic thresholding methods. Analyses and experimental results show that static thresholding methods, especially the most popular iterative method, can make accurate pixel classifications in those general Trimaps with relatively fewer unknown pixels. However, in a much larger Trimap, there methods are limited by the conservative color and spatial thresholds. In contrast, dynamic thresholding methods can make much aggressive classifications on much difficult cases, but still strongly suffer from noises and false classifications. In addition, the sharp boundary detector is further discussed as a prior of pure pixels. Finally, summaries and a more effective approach are presented for pre-processing compared with the existing methods.展开更多

Unique finger impression acknowledgment is one of the most seasoned types of biometric identification. However, getting a decent unique finger impression picture isn’t that simple. So we must process unique finger impression picture before coordinating. A crucial advance in measurements of fingerprint minutiae is to obtain minutiae from the finger impression pictures dependably. However, fingerprint images are occasionally of perfect quality. They might be debased and defiled because of varieties in skin and impression conditions. Along these lines, image enhancement strategies utilize other details extraction to acquire a more reliable estimation of minutiae areas. The primary objective of this research work is to introduce a superior and improved unique fingerprint image. We studied the elements identifying with getting elite component focuses detection algorithm, for example, picture quality, segmentation, picture upgrade and highlight recognition. Usually utilized features for enhancing unique finger impression picture quality are Fourier spectrum energy, Sobel filter energy, and local orientation. Precise segmentation of unique finger impression edges from a broad foundation is vital. For productive improvement and feature extraction algorithms, we zero the commotion in segmented features. As a pre-processing method, we need to perform comprising of field introduction, ridge frequency estimation, Sobel filtering, division. Then connect the resulting picture to a thinning algorithm and consequent minutiae extraction. After resultant extraction of these minutiae focuses, we will utilize the picture with focuses for coordinating or finding the offenders and also for other security issues. The procedure of image pre-processing and minutiae extraction is explored. The simulations are performed in the MATLAB environment to assess the execution of the implemented algorithm.展开更多

These newly classified pure pixels are then fed to the matting process as samples to improve the quality of the final matte. However, in the research field of image matting, the importance of pre-processing step is still blurry. Moreover, there are no corresponding review articles for this step, and the quantitative comparison of Trimap and alpha mattes after this step still remains unsolved. In this paper, the necessity and the importance of pre-processing step in image matting are firstly discussed in details. Next, current pre-processing methods are introduced by using the following two categories： static thresholding methods and dynamic thresholding methods. Analyses and experimental results show that static thresholding methods, especially the most popular iterative method, can make accurate pixel classifications in those general Trimaps with relatively fewer unknown pixels. However, in a much larger Trimap, there methods are limited by the conservative color and spatial thresholds. In contrast, dynamic thresholding methods can make much aggressive classifications on much difficult cases, but still strongly suffer from noises and false classifications. In addition, the sharp boundary detector is further discussed as a prior of pure pixels. Finally, summaries and a more effective approach are presented for pre-processing compared with the existing methods.
文摘Fingerprints are an extraordinary source for recognizable proof of people. Unique finger impression acknowledgment is one of the most seasoned types of biometric identification. However, getting a decent unique finger impression picture isn’t that simple. So we must process unique finger impression picture before coordinating. A crucial advance in measurements of fingerprint minutiae is to obtain minutiae from the finger impression pictures dependably. However, fingerprint images are occasionally of perfect quality. They might be debased and defiled because of varieties in skin and impression conditions. Along these lines, image enhancement strategies utilize other details extraction to acquire a more reliable estimation of minutiae areas. The primary objective of this research work is to introduce a superior and improved unique fingerprint image. We studied the elements identifying with getting elite component focuses detection algorithm, for example, picture quality, segmentation, picture upgrade and highlight recognition. Usually utilized features for enhancing unique finger impression picture quality are Fourier spectrum energy, Sobel filter energy, and local orientation. Precise segmentation of unique finger impression edges from a broad foundation is vital. For productive improvement and feature extraction algorithms, we zero the commotion in segmented features. As a pre-processing method, we need to perform comprising of field introduction, ridge frequency estimation, Sobel filtering, division. Then connect the resulting picture to a thinning algorithm and consequent minutiae extraction. After resultant extraction of these minutiae focuses, we will utilize the picture with focuses for coordinating or finding the offenders and also for other security issues. The procedure of image pre-processing and minutiae extraction is explored. The simulations are performed in the MATLAB environment to assess the execution of the implemented algorithm.

文摘This study introduces an innovative contour detection algorithm,PeakCET,designed for rapid and efficient analysis of natural product image fingerprints using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatogram(GC×GC).This method innovatively combines contour edge tracking with affinity propagation(AP)clustering for peak detection in GC×GC fingerprints,the first in this field.Contour edge tracking signif-icantly reduces false positives caused by“burr”signals,while AP clustering enhances detection accuracy in the face of false negatives.The efficacy of this approach is demonstrated using three medicinal products derived from Curcuma wenyujin.PeakCET not only performs contour detection but also employs inter-group peak matching and peak-volume percentage calculations to assess the compositional similarities and differences among various samples.Furthermore,this algorithm compares the GC×GC fingerprints of Radix/Rhizoma Curcumae Wenyujin with those of products from different botanical origins.The findings reveal that genetic and geographical factors influence the accumulation of secondary metabolites in various plant tissues.Each sample exhibits unique characteristic components alongside common ones,and vari-ations in content may influence their therapeutic effectiveness.This research establishes a foundational data-set for the quality assessment of Curcuma products and paves the way for the application of computer vision techniques in two-dimensional(2D)fingerprint analysis of GC×GC data.

文摘Fluorescence-based imaging has emerged as a powerful tool for detecting latent fingerprints(LFPs).However,existing fluorescent developers face challenges in differentiating friction ridges from backgrounds with intractable fluorescence,and to date,post-processing techniques fail to effectively enhance poorly visualized fingerprints.Herein,trichromatic-emitting carbon dots(CDs)were synthesized via a one-step solvothermal method using dyes and ethylene glycol as precursors.Experimental and theoretical results revealed that the high photostability and photobleaching resistance of the synthesized CDs originated from the hydrogen-bond interactions between the carbonaceous matrix and dye-related functional groups and fragments,which served as the fluorophore of these Dye-CDs.By combining CDs with diatomite,the resulting composite powders demonstrated high sensitivity and selectivity in fluorescence visualization of both fresh and aging LFPs.Using a typical powdering method with Dye-CDs/diatomite stored for 30 days,levels 1–3 detailed features of LFPs deposited on various porous or non-porous substrates were identified with high contrast.The developed tunable multicolor post-processing technique,achieved by separating ridge patterns from background noise,ensured highresolution details and overcame the challenges of weakly developed fingerprints.Thus,the proposed dual-mode strategy provides a promising solution for practical fingerprint imaging.
