摘要
指纹图像的质量测量与评价,在指纹图像分割、增强及指纹匹配等环节都有重要应用.同时,指纹图像的质量分类,对指纹识别算法的适用性研究也有重要意义.本文提出一种基于支持向量机的指纹图像质量分类方法.该方法选择梯度、Gabor特征、方向对比度等指标,利用支持向量机有效实现指纹图像质量分类.并采用少类样本合成过采样技术(SMOTE)降低指纹图像质量好坏的类别不平衡问题对分类的影响.理论分析和实验结果都表明该方法能够较为有效地提高指纹图像质量分类的正确率.
In an automatic fingerprint identification system, estimating the quality of fingerprint image has significant value for segmentation, enhancement and matching processes. Besides, the quality classification of fingerprint image is of paramount significance in the applicability research of fingerprint recognition algorithm. In this paper, a method for quality classification of fingerprint image is proposed based on the support vector machine （SVM）. The gradient, Gabor feature, and directional contrast are used as the quality index, and SVM is applied to achieve quality classification of fingerprint image. Meanwhile, synthetic minority over sampling technique （SMOTE） method is employed to reduce the influence of class imbalance problem. Both the theoretical analysis and the experimental results indicate the validity of the proposed method.
