Keywords:
Dataset Augmentation, Finger Vein Authentication, Finger Vein Image Labelling, LSTM, VGG16Abstract
Finger vein authentication offers enhanced security due to the unique and internal nature of vein patterns. However, real-world applications encounter significant issues from motion artifacts and varying image capture conditions, impacting performance and reliability. This study addresses these challenges by utilizing image labelling, dataset augmentation, and a motion-tolerant deep learning architecture. Pixel-wise labelling of finger vein images enhances the model's sensitivity to vein patterns, facilitating data augmentation at the pixel level and improving robustness to environmental variations. The data is enhanced using extensive data augmentation techniques. The proposed methodology combines “Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)” and “Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)” for feature extraction and handling motion artifacts. CNN effectively captures spatial features while the LSTM processes temporal information, making the model more resilient to motion artifacts. The model is designed to adapt to different lighting conditions and handle variations in finger positioning, ensuring accurate recognition. This comprehensive approach significantly improves the reliability and performance of finger vein authentication systems in diverse real-world environments.
