| Abstract(in English) | In this paper, we discuss how binarization methods must be evaluated for fingerprint identification. In general, two types of minutias, i.e., ridge endings and bifurcations, are detected from the thinned image. False minutiase structures result in the degradation of identification performance. Hence, it is very important to detect true minutiae. We evaluate five binarization methods in terms of the accuracy of detection of true ridge endings and bifurcations. Moreover, we discuss the quality of ridges. Experimental results with real fingerprints show that Mehtre's algorithm is recommended. |
