On the Relevance of Minutiae Count and Distribution for Finger Vein Recognition Accuracy

Vein recognition usually uses binary features, but besides deep learning-based approaches key-point and minutiae-based ones started to become popular as well. Statistical measures for vein minutiae points, like spatial point distribution, have not been investigated in literature so far. In this work the number of vein minutiae points and their spatial distribution is analyzed in relation to recogn...
