Abstract

See full text

A fingerprint processing system includes an input unit, a calculation unit and an output unit. The input unit is applied to input an original fingerprint image. The calculation unit is applied to decompose the original fingerprint image to a decomposed image by singular value decomposition (SVD) and the decomposed image is transformed into a plurality of sub-band images by discrete wavelet transformation (DWT) with a template. A plurality of compensation weight coefficients of DWT are calculated to compensate the sub-band images to generate a plurality of compensated sub-band images which are rebuilt by an inverse DWT. After rebuilding the compensated sub-band images, the output unit is applied to output an enhanced fingerprint image.
