Abstract

Biometric Wrist Authentication (BWA) is one of the best-known authentication schemes in many access control systems. The use of fingerprint biometrics as humans attempt to communicate with robots/machines, and their physical environments have inherent setbacks. However, various efforts have been proposed to fix the limitations. Most biometric efforts suffer from lack of computational derivatives and do not support optimal image compression. Motivated by these concerns, the goal of this paper is fivefold. First, we proposed BWA using Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) to compress palm print images and develop Wrist-Print Biometric Identification System (WPBIS). Second, we developed a process model for DCT and characterized it for wrist templates considering both original and decoded images. Third, Bits per pixel (Bpp) and Compression ratio (Cr) for a wrist template/bioscript are used as metrics for evaluation. Fourth, after adopting various timestamps, we observed that the image template Bpp yielded 1.256 Bpp and compression of 63.26% based on DCT. Fifth, we showed a typical experimental scenario with a digital signal processor feeding images with DCT. Identification and verification of various wrist-prints (test-point samples) are equally carried out. From the results, WPBIS DCT offered higher image intensity compared with Wavelet transform.
