Investigating the Thresholding Effect and Fingerprint Transformation Using Cross-Correlation Similarity Matching
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This research presents a cross-correlation similarity matching method to study the fingerprint transformation and thresholding impact. This work directly compares the impact of various transformations (rotation, translation, elastic deformation, and scaling) on the fingerprint matching performance at different threshold values, in contrast to the standard minutiae-based systems. In order to compare the template positions of the two fingerprints using plots, the cross-correlation similarity matching of fingerprints first selects suitable templates in the primary fingerprint and then uses template matching to assess the impact of each transformation on matching accuracy, FRR, and FAR in the secondary print. The findings highlight the potential of thresholding in developing reliable and practical fingerprint recognition systems.
