Analysis of Fingerprint Recognition Performance on InfantsSamuel J Reiff (9183044) 29 July 2020 (has links)
<p>In
this study, any change in fingerprint performance, image quality and minutiae
count for infants in three different age groups was evaluated (0-6, 7-12, and >12
months). This was done to determine whether there is a difference in performance
between infant age groups for a fingerprint recognition system.</p>
<p>The purpose of this
research was to determine whether there is a difference in infant fingerprint
performance and image quality metrics, between three different age groups (0-6,
7-12, and >12 months old), using the same optical sensor? The data used for
this secondary analysis was collected as part of a longitudinal multimodal
infant study, using the Digital Persona U.are.U 4500. DET curves, zoo analysis,
and image quality metrics were used to evaluate performance and quality
factored by infant age group.</p><p>This
study found that there was a difference in image quality and minutiae count,
genuine and impostor match scores, and performance error rates (EER) between
the three age groups. Therefore, quality and performance were dependent on age.
While there was a difference in performance between age groups, there was
generally stability for subjects who overlapped between multiple age groups.
Difference in performance was most likely due to the difference in physical
characteristics between subjects in each age group, rather than individual
instability. The results showed that it could potentially be feasible to use
fingerprint recognition for children over the age of 12 months.</p>
