Fusion of Iris Texture with Finger vein Geometry for Authentication

A framework for feature level fusion-based authentication system is proposed in this paper. Feature level fusion improves the robustness and classification accuracy compared to unimodal authentication system. This work is carried in two-folds. The first experiment fuses the translation, rotation and scale (TRS) invariant statistical features of iris with finger vein. The second experiment contemplates geometrical, structural and statistical properties of finger vein with local and statistical features of iris.
