HAND VEIN RECOGNITION BASED ON MULTI-SCALE LBP AND WAVELET
This paper proposes a novel approach to extract multi-scale LBP features of hand vein images.Local Binary Patterns (LBP) is a simple but efficient texture operator for hand vein images.However there are two big limitations of LBP.One is that it only covers a small neighborhood area and gets very limited local information.The other is some non-uniform information will be lost as uniform patterns is adopted.To solve these problems,the hand vein image is decomposed with two-level wavelet,and gets 8 coefficient matrices:A1,H1,V1,D1,A2,H2,V2 and D2.In order to obtain the weight of each sub-band,the recognition accuracy of each sub-band is calculated by original LBP based on Euclidean Distance.In consideration of the direction of hand vein images,two diagonal high frequency components,D1 and D2,are abandoned.Meanwhile,A1,H1,V1,A2,H2,V2 and the original image are chosen as multi-scale components.Finally all LBP features of components are fused.Experimental results on a database of 2040 images show that the proposed method outperforms original LBP and traditional multi-scale LBP.
