Enhancement techniques in fingerprints as a tool in dactyloscopy
In this work an application of image enhancement techniques in fingerprints is presented. Digital Image-processing technology was applied to restored fingerprints with non-uniform contrast. These fingerprints corresponded to unidentified persons who were murdered by Military Forces in 1976. In 1997,...

| description |
In this work an application of image enhancement techniques in fingerprints is presented. Digital Image-processing technology was applied to restored fingerprints with non-uniform contrast. These fingerprints corresponded to unidentified persons who were murdered by Military Forces in 1976. In 1997, after a court decision, Human Right Organisations acceded to the microfilms of the Computer Records Division of the Province of Buenos Aires Police, which contained fingerprints and complementary information from these missing people. Unfortunately most of the fingerprints were taken with a reduction ratio of 41x, they were blurred and their spatial definition was not clear. These features made their classification and comparison very difficult. In this paper a combination of spatial, frequency and morphological enhancement techniques used to restore the fingerprints is presented. Filters had to be combined because the results obtained by applying conventional enhancement techniques were not satisfactory. The resulting images show prominent features in fingerprints that cannot be extracted by other enhancement techniques. |
