This project presents an effective texture-based approach for palmprint recognition. It has three major steps -
- First, region of interest (ROI) is extracted from the hand image.
- Then, features are extracted in the processing stage from the palmprint texture using discrete cosine transform (DCT). Block-wise DCT and Holistic DCT are used to extract features.
- Finally, following machine learning approaches are used for classification -
- Back-propagation neural network (BPNN)
- K-nearest neighbor (KNN)
- Probabilistic neural network (PNN)
- Radial basis function network (RBFN)
- Radial basis probabilistic neural network (RBPNN)
