Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method and a device are provided for performing a recognition process. The recognition process compares an individual fingerprint view to a fingerprint enrollment template in order to determine whether a match has been found. The determination of a match is based on individual match statistics collected between the individual fingerprint view and each view of the fingerprint enrollment template. Additionally, inter-view match statistics between each view of the fingerprint enrollment template may also be determined. The inter-view match statistics can be analyzed along with the individual match statistics to further inform the determination of a match between the individual fingerprint view and the fingerprint enrollment template.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of biometric matching to an enrollment template, the method comprising: acquiring a verification template, the verification template comprising a verification view of a biometric sample captured by an input device; comparing the verification view to a plurality of individual enrollment views of the enrollment template to determine individual match statistics between the verification view and the individual enrollment views; calculating a c…
