Region filling and object removal by exemplar based image inpaintingWoonghee Lee
To get rid of (an) object(s) at a picture or to restore a picture from scratches or holes, Criminisi at el. suggested an algorithm which is combied "texture synthesis" and "inpainting". I made the slide to present at a class to introduce this algorithm. I refered a slide http://bit.ly/1Ng7DNt. I wish this slide may help you to understand the algorithm. Thank you.
Inpainting refers to the art of restoring lost parts of image and reconstructing them based on the background information i.e Image inpainting is the process of reconstructing lost or deteriorated parts of images using information from surrounding areas. In fine art museums, inpainting of degraded paintings is traditionally carried out by professional artists and usually very time consuming.The purpose of inpainting is to reconstruct missing regions in a visually plausible manner so that it seems reasonable to the human eye. There have been several approaches proposed for the same.
This paper gives an overview of different Techniques of Image Inpainting.The proposed work includes the overview of PDE based inpainting algorithm and Texture synthesis based inpainting algorithm. This paper presents a brief survey on comparative study of these two techniques used for Image Inpainting.
A Survey on Exemplar-Based Image Inpainting Techniquesijsrd.com
Preceding paper include exemplar-based image inpainting technique give idea how to inpaint destroyed region such as Criminisi algorithm, patch shifting scheme, search region prior method. Criminsi’s and Sarawut’s patch shifting scheme needed more time to inpaint an damaged region but proposed method decrease time complexity by searching only in related region of missing portion of image.

A NOVEL APPROACH TO SMOOTHING ON 3D STRUCTURED ADAPTIVE MESH OF THE KINECT-BA...csandit
3-dimensional object modelling of real world objects in steady state by means of multiple point
cloud (pcl) depth scans taken by using sensing camera and application of smoothing algorithm
are suggested in this study. Polygon structure, which is constituted by coordinates of point
cloud (x,y,z) corresponding to the position of 3D model in space and obtained by nodal points
and connection of these points by means of triangulation, is utilized for the demonstration of 3D
models. Gaussian smoothing and developed methods are applied to the mesh consisting of
merge of these polygons, and a new mesh simplification and augmentation algorithm are
suggested for the over the 3D modelling. Mesh consisting of merge of polygons can be
demonstrated in a more packed, smooth and fluent way. In this study is shown that applied the
triangulation and smoothing method for 3D modelling, perform to a fast and robust mesh
structures compared to existing methods therewithal no remeshing is necessary for refinement
and reduction.
Comparison of Segmentation Algorithms and Estimation of Optimal Segmentation ...Pinaki Ranjan Sarkar
Recent advancement in sensor technology allows very high spatial resolution along with multiple spectral bands. There are many studies, which highlight that Object Based Image Analysis(OBIA) is more accurate than pixel-based classification for high resolution(< 2m) imagery. Image segmentation is a crucial step for OBIA and it is a very formidable task to estimate optimal parameters for segmentation as it does not have any unique solution. In this paper, we have studied different segmentation algorithms (both mono-scale and multi-scale) for different terrain categories and showed how the segmented output depends on upon various parameters. Later, we have introduced a novel method to estimate optimal segmentation parameters. The main objectives of this study are to highlight the effectiveness of presently available segmentation techniques on very high-resolution satellite data and to automate segmentation process. Pre-estimation of segmentation parameter is more practical and efficient in OBIA. Assessment of segmentation algorithms and estimation of segmentation parameters are examined based on the very high-resolution multi-spectral WorldView-3(0.3m, PAN sharpened) data.
This paper proposed a facial expression recognition approach based on Gabor wavelet transform. Gabor wavelet filter is first used as pre-processing stage for extraction of the feature vector representation. Dimensionality of the feature vector is reduced using Principal Component Analysis and Local binary pattern (LBP) Algorithms. Experiments were carried out of The Japanese female facial expression (JAFFE) database. In all experiments conducted on JAFFE database, results obtained reveal that GW+LBP has outperformed other approaches in this paper with Average recognition rate of 90% under the same experimental setting.

Object Elimination and Reconstruction Using an Effective Inpainting MethodIOSR Journals
Abstract: Three major problems have been found in the existing algorithms of image inpainting:
Reconstruction of large regions, Preference of filling-in and Choice of best exemplars to synthesize the missing
region. The proposed algorithm introduces two ideas that deal with these problems preserving edge continuity
along with decrease in error propagation. The proposed algorithm introduces a modified priority computation
in order to generate better edges in the omitted region and to reduce the transmission of errors in the resultant
image a novel way to find optimal exemplar has been proposed. This proposal optimizes the reconstruction
process and increases the accuracy. The proposed algorithm removes blurness and builds edges efficiently
while reconstructing large target region.

Effect of grid adaptive interpolation over depth imagescsandit
A suitable interpolation method is essential to keep the noise level minimum along with the timedelay.
In recent years, many different interpolation filters have been developed for instance
H.264-6 tap filter, and AVS- 4 tap filter. This work demonstrates the effects of a four-tap lowpass
tap filter (Grid-adaptive filter) on a hole-filled depth image. This paper provides (i) a
general form of uniform interpolations for both integer and sub-pixel locations in terms of the
sampling interval and filter length, and (ii) compares the effect of different finite impulse
response filters on a depth-image. Furthermore, the author proposed and investigated an
integrated Grid-adaptive filter, that implement hole-filling and interpolation concurrently,
causes reduction in time-delay noticeably along with high PSNR .

FINGERPRINT CLASSIFICATION BASED ON ORIENTATION FIELDijesajournal
ABSTRACT
This paper introduces an effective method of fingerprint classification based on discriminative feature gathering from orientation field. A nonlinear support vector machines (SVMs) is adopted for the classification. The orientation field is estimated through a pixel-Wise gradient descent method and the percentage of directional block classes is estimated. These percentages are classified into four-dimensional vector considered as a good feature that can be combined with an accurate singular point to classify the fingerprint into one of five classes. This method shows high classification accuracy relative to other spatial domain classifiers.
Poster for our conference paper titled "4K Ultra High Definition Video Coding using Homogeneous Motion Discovery Oriented Prediction" published in the Digital Image Computing: Techniques and Applications (DICTA) 2017 conference.
Abstract: State of the art video compression techniques use the motion model to approximate geometric boundaries of moving objects where motion discontinuities occur. Motion hints based inter-frame prediction paradigm moves away from this redundant approach and employs an innovative framework consisting of motion hint fields that are continuous and invertible, at least, over their respective domains. However, estimation of motion hint is computationally demanding, in particular for high resolution video sequences. Discovery of homogeneous motion models and their associated masks over the current frame and then use these models and masks to form a prediction of the current frame, provides a computationally simpler approach to video coding compared to motion hint. In this paper, the potential of this coherent motion model based approach, equipped with bigger blocks, is investigated for coding 4K Ultra High Definition (UHD) video sequences. Experimental results show a savings in bit rate of 4.68% is achievable over standalone HEVC.
Boosting ced using robust orientation estimationijma
In this paper, Coherence Enhancement Diffusion (CED) is boosted feeding external orientation using new
robust orientation estimation. In CED, proper scale selection is very important as the gradient vector at
that scale reflects the orientation of local ridge. For this purpose a new scheme is proposed in which pre
calculated orientation, by using local and integration scales. From the experiments it is found the proposed
scheme is working much better in noisy environment as compared to the traditional Coherence

Designing a pencil beam pattern with low sidelobesPiyush Kashyap
In this paper, a system has been designed for an operational frequency of 1.27 GHz consisting of an 8 element array of parasitic dipoles illuminated by a 4 element center fed array of active dipoles with Dolph-Chebyshev excitation coefficients. The array is designed to achieve a fairly pencil beam pattern suitable for direction of arrival estimation purposes. Array geometry and configuration is optimized for both active and parasitic elements using the PSO tool in FEKO. A directive radiation pattern is obtained with a gain of 14.5 dBi in the broadside direction along with a beamwidth of 30.29o. VSWR of 1.58 is achieved. Further, an iterative least square valued error estimation approach using phase control to achieve a desired array factor pattern for an n-element linear array, has been shown to be effective for larger number of iterations. The array excitation coefficients achieved were consistent with the Dolph-Chebyshev coefficients used in our antenna array design. With the ability to introduce nulls and steering the main beam in desired directions along with a pencil beam radiation pattern, beamsteering has been illustrated and the MUSIC algorithm for direction of arrival estimation has been implemented
Method of Fracture Surface Matching Based on Mathematical StatisticsIJRESJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Fracture surface matching is an important part of point cloud registration. In this paper, a method of fracture surface matching based on mathematical statistics is proposed. We reconstruct a coordinate system of the fractured surface points, and analyze the characteristics of the point cloud in the new coordinate system, using the theory of mathematical statistcs. The general distribution of the points is determined. The method can realize the matching relation among some point cloud.
An efficient VLSI architecture implementation for barrel distortion correction in surveillance camera images is presented. The distortion correction model is based on least squares estimation method. To reduce the computing complexity, an odd-order polynomial to approximate the back-mapping expansion polynomial is used. By algebraic transformation, the approximated polynomial becomes a monomial form which can be solved by Horner’s algorithm. The proposed VLSI architecture can achieve frequency 218MHz with 1490 logic elements by using 0.18μm technology. Compared with previous techniques, the circuit reduces the hardware cost and the requirement of memory usage.
EXTENDED WAVELET TRANSFORM BASED IMAGE INPAINTING ALGORITHM FOR NATURAL SCENE...cscpconf
This paper proposes an exemplar based image inpainting using extended wavelet transform. The
Image inpainting modifies an image with the available information outside the region to be
inpainted in an undetectable way. The extended wavelet transform is in two dimensions. The
Laplacian pyramid is first used to capture the point discontinuities, and then followed by a
directional filter bank to link point discontinuities into linear structures. The proposed model
effectively captures the edges and contours of natural scene images

Using Generic Image Processing Operations to Detect a Calibration GridJan Wedekind
Camera calibration is an important problem in 3D computer vision. The problem of determining the camera parameters has been studied extensively. However the algorithms for determining the required correspondences are either semi-automatic (i.e. they require user interaction) or they involve difficult to implement custom algorithms.
We present a robust algorithm for detecting the corners of a calibration grid and assigning the correct correspondences for calibration . The solution is based on generic image processing operations so that it can be implemented quickly. The algorithm is limited to distortion-free cameras but it could potentially be extended to deal with camera distortion as well. We also present a corner detector based on steerable filters. The corner detector is particularly suited for the problem of detecting the corners of a calibration grid.

Projected Barzilai-Borwein Methods Applied to Distributed Compressive Spectru...Polytechnique Montreal
Cognitive radio allows unlicensed (cognitive) users to use licensed frequency bands by exploiting spectrum sensing techniques to detect whether or not the licensed (primary) users are present. In this paper, we present a compressed sensing applied to spectrum-occupancy detection in wide-band applications. The collected analog signals from each cognitive radio (CR) receiver at a fusion center are transformed to discrete-time signals by using analog-to-information converter (AIC) and then employed to calculate the autocorrelation. For signal reconstruction, we exploit a novel approach to solve the optimization problem consisting of minimizing both a quadratic (l2) error term and an l1-regularization term. In specific, we propose the Basic gradient projection (GP) and projected Barzilai-Borwein (PBB) algorithm to offer a better performance in terms of the mean squared error of the power spectrum density estimate and the detection probability of licensed signal occupancy.
Contour-based Pedestrian Detection with Foreground Distribution Trend Filteri...ITIIIndustries
In this work, we propose a real-time pedestrian detection method for crowded environments based on contour and motion information. Sparse contour templates of human shapes are first generated on the basis of a point distribution model (PDM), then a template matching step is applied to detect humans. To reduce the detecting time complexity and improve the detection accuracy, we propose to take the ratio and distribution trend of foreground pixels inside each detecting window into consideration. A tracking method is further applied to deal with the short-term occlusions and false alarms. The experimental results show that our method can efficiently detect pedestrians in videos of crowded scenes.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
LEARNING FINGERPRINT RECONSTRUCTION: FROM MINUTIAE TO IMAGE
1. LEARNING FINGERPRINT RECONSTRUCTION:
FROM MINUTIAE TO IMAGE
Abstract—The set of minutia points is considered to be the most distinctive
feature for fingerprint representation and is widely used in fingerprint matching. It
was believed that the minutia set does not contain sufficient information to
reconstruct the original fingerprint image from which minutiae were extracted.
However, recent studies have shown that it is indeed possible to reconstruct
fingerprint images from their minutiae representations. Reconstruction techniques
demonstrate the need for securing fingerprint templates, improving the template
interoperability, and improving fingerprint synthesis. But, there is still a large gap
between the matching performance obtained from original fingerprint images and
their corresponding reconstructed fingerprint images. In this paper, the prior
knowledge about fingerprint ridge structures is encoded in terms of orientation
patch and continuous phase patch dictionaries to improve the fingerprint
reconstruction. The orientation patch dictionary is used to reconstruct the
orientation field from minutiae, while the continuous phase patch dictionary is
used to reconstruct the ridge pattern. Experimental results on three public domain
databases (FVC2002 DB1_A, FVC2002 DB2_A, and NIST SD4) demonstrate that
the proposed reconstruction algorithm outperforms the state-of-the-art
reconstruction algorithms in terms of both: 1) spurious minutiae and 2) matching
performance with respect to type-I attack (matching the reconstructed fingerprint
against the same impression from which minutiae set was extracted) and type-II
2. attack (matching the reconstructed fingerprint against a different impression of the
same finger).
EXISTING SYSTEM:
Existing reconstruction algorithms essentially consist of two main steps: i)
orientation field reconstruction and ii) ridge pattern reconstruction. The orientation
field, which determines the ridge flow, can be reconstructed from minutiae and/or
singular points.he orientation field was reconstructed from the singular points (core
and delta) using the zeropole model . However, the orientation field in fingerprints
cannot simply be accounted for by singular points only. Cappelli et al. proposed a
variant of the zeropole model with additional degrees of freedom to fit the model
to the minutiae directions. However, the orientation field reconstructed based on
zero-pole model cannot be guaranteed when the singular points are not available., a
set of minutiae triplets was proposed to reconstruct orientation field in triangles
without using singular points. The algorithm proposed by Feng and Jain predicts an
orientation value for each block by using the nearest minutia in each of the eight
sectors. The approaches reconstructed orientation field from minutiae to improve
the matching performance. However, these orientation reconstruction approaches,
based on given minutiae, do not utilize any prior knowledge of the fingerprint
orientation pattern and may result in a non-fingerprint-like orientation field.
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
3. The superior performance of the proposed algorithm over can be attributed to: 1)
Use of prior knowledge of orientation pattern, i.e., orientation patch dictionary,
which provides better orientation field reconstruction, especially around singular
points. 2) The sequential process which consists of (i) reconstructing locally based
on continuous phase patch dictionary, (ii) stitching these patches to form a
fingerprint image and (iii) removing spurious minutiae. Instead of generating a
continuous phase and then adding spiral phase to the continuous phase globally,
this procedure is able to better preserve the ridge structure. 3) Use of local ridge
frequency around minutiae.
Module 1
Am-fm fingerprint model
The AM-FM fingerprint model proposed by Larkin and Fletcher [13] represents a
fingerprint image I as a hologram, i.e., consisting of 2D amplitude and frequency
modulated fringe pattern: I (x, y) = a(x, y) + b(x, y) cos(ψ(x, y)) + n(x, y), where
a(x, y), b(x, y) and n(x, y) are, respectively, the offset, amplitude and noise, which
make the fingerprint realistic, and ψ(x, y) is the phase which completely determines
the ridge structures and minutiae of the fingerprint.
Module 2
Dictionary Construction
4. 1) Orientation Patch Dictionary: The orientation patch dictionary proposed by
Feng et al. for latent enhancement is directly utilized as prior knowledge of ridge
flow for orientation field reconstruction. The orientation patch dictionary DO,
consisting of a number of orientation patches, is constructed from a set of high
quality fingerprints (50 rolled fingerprint images). An orientation patch consists of
10×10 orientation elements with each orientation element referring to the dominant
orientation in a block of size 16 × 16 pixels.
2) Continuous Phase Patch Dictionary: The continuous phase patch dictionary,
which includes a number of continuous phase patches (without spirals), is
constructed through the following steps:
i) Fingerprint selection and processing: High quality fingerprints in NIST SD4 [1,
whose NIST Fingerprint Image Quality (NFIQ) [20] index1 is less than 3, are
selected for dictionary construction. For each selected fingerprint, the orientation
field and the quality map with a block size of 8 × 8 pixels are obtained by
MINDTCT , and the frequency field is computed by the method proposed. Gabor
filtering is utilized to enhance the selected fingerprints.
ii) Orientation patch clustering: A set of orientation patches of size 6×6 blocks
(with each block being 8×8 pixels) is then selected by sliding a window over the
orientation field with a step size of 1 block; if the average quality value of a patch
is larger than a predefined threshold T (T is set to 3.75), the patch is included in the
training set. Each orientation patch is converted to an 18-dimensional vector by
down sampling by a factor of 2 (converting the block size from 8 × 8 pixels to 16×
16 pixels) and representing an orientation element θ in an orientation patch as a 2-
5. dimensional vector (cos 2θ, sin 2θ) to deal with the ambiguity between −π2 and π2
. The k-means clustering method is then adopted to find 24 cluster centers among
the set of orientation patches.
iii) Fingerprint patch clustering: For each orientation patch center, a set of
fingerprint patches of size 48 × 48 pixels (100,000 patches in our experiments) are
selected by sliding a window over the ideal representation of selected fingerprint
images with a step size of 8 pixels. A fingerprint patch is selected for the i th
orientation patch center if it satisfies the quality requirement in step ii) and its
closest orientation patch center is the i th one. A total of 1,024 fingerprint patch
cluster centers are constructed by the k-means clustering method for each
orientation patch center. The minutiae points in each cluster are removed using the
method in section II to get its continuous phase which forms the continuous phase
patch dictionary; a 24 × 1, 024 dictionary is constructed.
iv) Orientation and frequency fields estimation: The method is adopted to
compute the orientation field and
average ridge frequency for each dictionary element, which is used for dictionary
lookup. Its unwrapped pixel-wise orientation field, which is used for adding input
minutiae (spiral phase) to the continuous phase, is computed using the approach
proposed.
Module 3
Orientation Field Reconstruction
6. The orientation field is considered only in the foreground region of a fingerprint
which is determined by dilating the
convex hull of the input minutiae points with a disk-shape mask with a radius of 32
pixels. The image is divided into
non-overlapping blocks of size 16 × 16 pixels. For the blocks containing minutiae,
their orientations are simply replaced by the directions of their corresponding
minutiae (modulated by π). Since the minutiae points are usually non-uniformly
distributed (sparsely distributed in some regions), it is difficult to select
representative orientation patches from DO in the region without minutiae or with
one or two minutiae. Orientation patch dictionary, therefore, cannot be used to
reconstruct the orientation field directly. In order to address this problem,
orientation density is introduced, and the orientations of blocks with low
orientation density values are interpolated iteratively using Delaunay triangulation.
Module 4
Fingerprint Reconstruction
The continuous phase patch dictionary is used to reconstruct fingerprint image
patches based on the reconstructed orientation field and ridge frequency field in
section III-B. Global optimization is then adopted to obtain the reconstructed
fingerprint image.
1) Fingerprint Patch Reconstruction: For a patch p of size 48 × 48 pixels in the
initial image (only the reconstructed
7. orientation field and ridge frequency field are available), its orientation field θp
with 3 × 3 blocks and average frequency f p are obtained from the reconstructed
orientation field and frequency field. The closest sub dictionary, among the 24
continuous phase patch sub dictionaries, is selected based on the orientation
similarity between θp and the orientation patch centers. A set of Np continuous
phase patches {ψ j C }Npj=1 in the selected sub dictionary are selected according
to their similarity with θp and f p. The similarity between an initial image patch
and a continuous phase patch.
Module 5
Fingerprint Image Refinement
We adopt the global AM-FM model to remove the spurious minutiae from the
reconstructed image I . The blockwise
orientation field is expanded to pixel-wise orientation field. The orientation
unwrapping method proposed is adopted to obtain the unwrapped orientation field
Ou. For orientation field with singular points, there are horizontal discontinuity
segments, which will introduce discontinuity in the unwrapped orientation field
and then in the phase image. A discontinuity segment D(x1, x2, y) from pixel (x1,
y) to pixel (x2, y) can be identified using the following two conditions [9]: 1) |Ou
(x, y) − Ou(x, y − 1)| ≥ π/2 when x ∈ [x1, x2], and 2) |Ou(x, y) − Ou (x, y − 1)| <
8. π/2 when x ∈ [x1, x2]. The position of a discontinuity segment D(x1, x2, y = a)
can be changed to the other side by adding sign(Ou (x1, a) − Ou(x1, a − 1))π for all
rows y < a or subtracting sign(Ou (x1, a) − Ou (x1, a − 1))π for all rows y ≥ a. In
order to alleviate the effect of the discontinuity, the i th (i ≥ 2) segment (according
to the y coordinate in increasing order) is changed, if necessary, to reduce the
overlapping x coordinates with (i − 1)th segment. We still use Ou to denote the
optimized unwrapped orientation field. The phase image ψ of I is obtained by
applying demodulation with the unwrapped orientation field Ou . Spurious
minutiae (should not overlap with the input minutiae and the discontinuity
segments), which are detected in ψ using the method in section II, can be removed
by subtracting the spirals formed by the spurious minutiae. However, due to the
discontinuity in the phase image, spirals are also introduced at the discontinuity
segments. The spirals at the i th discontinuity segment are removed using the
following two steps:
i) A complementary unwrapped orientation field Oiu is computed by
(1) changing the i th discontinuity segment to the other side by adding or
subtracting π and
(2) changing other discontinuity segments, if necessary, to reduce the
overlapping x coordinates with the i
discontinuity segment.
ii) cos(ψi−1), where ψi−1 is the phase image obtained by removing the spirals
around the (i − 1)th segment, is demodulated to get ψi with Oiu . The spirals
around the i th segment in ψi are detected and removed. After all discontinuity
segments have been considered, Gabor filtering is used to smooth the fingerprint
9. region around these discontinuity segments, and demodulation is used again to
obtain the final phase image and then final reconstruction.
CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE WORK
The goal of fingerprint reconstruction is to reproduce the original fingerprint image
from an input minutiae set. There are essentially three main reasons for studying
the problem of fingerprint image reconstruction from a given minutiae set: (i) to
demonstrate the need for securing minutiae template, (ii) to improve the
interoperability of fingerprint templates generated by different combinations of
sensors and algorithms, (iii) to improve fingerprint synthesis. Despite a significant
improvement in the performance of reconstruction algorithms over the past ten
years, there is still a discrepancy between the reconstructed fingerprint image and
original fingerprint image (from which the minutiae template was extracted) in
terms of matching performance. In this paper, we propose a reconstruction
algorithm that utilizes prior knowledge of fingerprint ridge structure to improve the
reconstructed fingerprint image. The prior knowledge is represented in terms of
two kinds of dictionaries, orientation patch and continuous phase patch
dictionaries. The orientation patch dictionary is used to reconstruct the orientation
field from the given minutiae set, while the continuous phase patch dictionary is
used to reconstruct the ridge pattern. Experimental results on three public domain
fingerprint databases (FVC2002 DB1_A, FVC2002 DB2_A and NIST SD4) show
that the proposed reconstruction algorithm outperforms two state-of-the-art
reconstruction algorithms in terms of reconstructed minutiae accuracy and
10. matching performance for both type-I and type-II attacks. The original fingerprints
from which the minutiae were extracted in terms of orientation field, ridge
frequency field and minutiae distribution, it is still difficult to fool a human expert
because the reconstructed fingerprints are ideal fingerprints (without any noise)
and have the synthetic appearance. Future work will investigate to make the
reconstructed fingerprints more realistic. The proposed method for orientation field
reconstruction only considers the local orientation pattern. The use of global
orientation prior knowledge as well as singular points may further improve the
ridge orientation reconstruction. The ridge frequency field used in this paper can be
either a fixed priori or reconstructed from the ridge frequency around minutiae.
Future work will investigate frequency field reconstruction directly from the
minutiae position and direction.
