New Feature-level Algorithm for a Face-fingerprint Integral Multi-biometrics Identification System

Abstract

This article delves into the power of multi-biometric fusion for individual identification. a new feature-level algorithm is proposed that is the Dis-Eigen algorithm. Here, a feature-fusion framework is proposed for attaining better accuracy when identifying individuals for multiple biometrics. The framework, therefore, underpins the new multi-biometric system as it guides multi-biometric fusion applications at the feature phase for identifying individuals. In this regard, the Face-fingerprints of 20 individuals represented by 160 images were used in this framework . Experimental resultants of the proposed approach show 93.70 % identification rate with feature-level fusion multi-biometric individual identification.
