Robust Biometric Systems: A Secure Framework Leveraging Extreme Learning Machine
摘要
As numerous sectors undergo digitization, they generate substantial amounts of data, making the effective security of this data an urgent concern. In recent years, biometrics has undergone significant maturation, with many devices employing fingerprint, facial, and even hand recognition seamlessly integrated into information security systems. This paper presents an advanced biometric recognition system utilizing Finger-Knuckle-Print (FKP) features, employing a single-hidden layer feed-forward neural network known as the Extreme Learning Machine (ELM). The proposed method offers high generalization capability while ensuring rapid learning efficiency. For feature extraction, we integrate Local Phase Quantization (LPQ) and Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) techniques to enhance recognition performance. A series of experiments conducted with a well-known and available FKP dataset, including four fingers of each person out of 165 persons, demonstrated the effectiveness of this scheme, especially when employing the improved version of ELM called Rough ELM (RELM), which outperforms many existing methods in the literature.
