摘要:Fingerprint-based recognition systems have been widely deployed in numerous civilian and government applications. However, the fingerprint recognition systems can be deceived by using an accurate imitation of a real fingerprint such as an artificially made fingerprint. In this paper, we propose a novel software-based fingerprint liveness detection algorithm based on gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), from which we can calculate the texture features of fingerprint images and obtain satisfactory results. For the first time, we extract texture features by constructing four-direction GLCMs in an image, and then quantization operation and normalization operation are adopted. After these, we detected whether a fingerprint image belongs to a real fingerprint or an artificial replica of it. A trained RBF SVM (support vector machine) classifiers scheme is used to make the final live/spoof decision via training and testing feature vectors. The experimental results reveal that our proposed method can discriminate between live fingerprints and fake ones with high classification accuracy.
