Abstract

The investigation of the privacy protection of biometric templates gains more and more attention. The spectral minutiae representation is a novel method to represent a minutiae set as a fixed-length feature vector, which is invariant to translation, and in which rotation and scaling become translations, so that they can be easily compensated for. These characteristics enable the combination of fingerprint recognition systems with template protection schemes that require as an input a fixed-length feature vector. However, the limited overlap of a fingerprint pair can reduce the performance of the spectral minutiae representation algorithm. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce the spectral representations of fingerprint minutiae subsets to cope with the limited overlap problem. In the experiment, we improve the recognition performance from 0.32% to 0.12% in equal error rate after applying the spectral representations of minutiae subsets algorithm.
