Abstract

Fingerprints are the oldest and most widely used form of biometric identification. The performance of any
fingerprint recognizer highly depends on the fingerprint image quality. Different types of noises in the fingerprint images
pose greater difficulty for recognizers. Thus, image enhancement techniques are employed prior to minutiae extraction to
obtain a more reliable estimation of minutiae locations. An enhancement algorithm improves image quality and repair
broken ridges.
This paper proposes a new method of enhancing fingerprint image which improves the visual quality of the fingerprint
image. The result shows, it can improve the performance of image enhancement.
