Abstract

Orientation Field (OF) is one of the most significant characters to distinguish fingerprint images from non-fingerprint images. An effective definition of fingerprint OF pattern will not only benefit fingerprint enhancement, but also contribute to latent fingerprint detection and segmentation. The existing fingerprint OF models either require pre-knowledge of singular points, or cannot be generalized to all kinds of fingerprint OFs. In this paper, we propose to define the fingerprint OF patterns based on low rank decomposition and sparse coding. Then we apply this proposed method to fingerprint OF recognition and detection. Experimental results prove the effectiveness of our method.
