We show that both techniques pursue a similar goal and that the difference in recognition efficiency stems from the fact that not all assumptions underlying the mean-variance normalization approach are always met. We present an alternative justification of why histogram equalization ensures enhanced verification performance, and, based on the findings, propose two novel preprocessing techniques: gaussianization of the palmprint images and gaussianization of image patches. We present comparative results obtained on the PolyU database and show that the patch-based normalization technique ensures stat-of-the-art recognition results with a simple feature extraction method and the nearest neighbor classifier. |

Sistemi, ki uporabljajo te metode, služijo kot varnostni mehanizmi za omejevanje dostopa do določenih prostorov, zgradb ali storitev ter kot pomoč pri kriminalističnih preiskavah. V članku predstavljamo primer biometričnega sistema, ki preveri identiteto uporabnika na podlagi slike njegove dlani. Sistem temelji na novem, hibridnem postopku izpeljave značilk, ki na slikovnem področju dlani najprej izvede Kadyrov-Petrouvo transformacijo, transformirane slike pa s postopkom linearne diskriminantne analize v nadaljevanju pretvori v kompaktne vektorje značilk. Uspešnost razpoznavanja s predlaganim sistemom smo preizkusili na obsežni podatkovni zbirki, kjer smo dosegli zadovoljive rezultate. |

The system was trained and tested on a database of 200 people (2000 hand images) and achieved a false acceptance rate (FAR) of 0.26% and a false rejection rate (FRR) of 1.39% in the best performing verification experiment. In a comparison, where in addition to the proposed system, three popular palmprint recognition techniques were tested for their verification accuracy, the proposed system performed the best. |
