Electronics Nuclear engineering Biometrics recognition system are getting more attention in efforts to protect our security and information in this world of digital impersonation.

Image fusion is a method to collect necessary information from all input image with different sources and create an output image that ideally has information from input image. Fused image can provide more information than single input image that improve quality and applicability of data. In this work, image fusion algorithms based on Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) in palm vein recognition is proposed. Input image will be divided into consecutive blocks and transformed into DCT coefficients. Fusion rule will be applied within the DCT coefficients and transformed back into fused image using inverse DCT. In this work, CASIA database is used to provide three types of wavelength spectrum which are 700 nm, 850 nm, and 940nm.

Multi-resolution DCT (MRDCT), Frequency Partition DCT (FPDCT) and Laplacian Pyramid DCT (LPDCT) image fusion is introduced on fusing more informative information from different types of wavelength and resulting in an image with finer details of vein patterns in the output image. In this work, triple combination of image fusion achieve better than dual combination of image fusion. By fusing three wavelength spectrums, MRDCT performed the best at 5.53% in EER rate compared to FPDCT and LPDCT. The conventional method such as Multi-resolution Singular Value Decomposition (MSVD), wavelet transform and Energy of Laplacian (EOL), were only able to achieve EER rate of 6.58%, 6.83% and 8.64% respectively. In addition to that, MRDCT with triple wavelength spectrum fusion showed a significant drop in EER by 9% compared with single 700 nm image, 7% compared with single 850 nm image, and 6% compared with single 940 nm image. It proved that MRDCT image fusion is suitable for palm vein recognition. For feature extraction, two types of local invariant feature based method was investigated, Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) and Speeded Up Robust Feature (SURF). SIFT algorithm achieved a reduction in EER rate by 12% in 700 nm, 8% in 850 nm, 7% in 940 nm compared with the SURF algorithm. The result shows that SIFT algorithm achieved a better recognition rate and extract more information and matching pairs compared to SURF algorithm. In conclusion, MRDCT image fusion with SIFT feature extraction are suitable to use in contactless palm vein recognition system. 2018-12 Thesis http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/27963/ http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/27963/1/Multispectral%20palm%20vein%20image%20fusion%20for%20contactless%20palm%20vein%20verification%20system.wm.pdf pdf en public masters Universiti Malaysia Pahang Faculty of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Zamri, Ibrahim
