Abstract
This paper presents a fast palmprint verification system based on fractal coding. In the stage of registration, a sub-image from user's training palmprints is intentionally extracted and stored as his or her template. In the stage of verification, the step of region of interest extraction is not needed, the sample image is directly matched with the template based on fractal coding, which can reduce the whole response time. Whether the sample image and the template are from the same person or not is decided by their matching scores. Experimental evaluation results on two databases clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
