FINGERPRINTS
INTRODUCTION
• Fingerprints are unique patterns formed by the
ridges and furrows on our fingertips. They have
been used for identification purposes for over a
century and are an important tool in forensic
science and criminal investigations.
G EAnalysis
of interest, can help classify fingerprints.
RPRINT • Minutiae: Minutiae points are specific features within a fingerprint, such
as ridge endings, bifurcations, and dots. These minutiae points are used
to create a unique fingerprint template for identification purposes.
• Fourier analysis: Fourier analysis is a mathematical technique that
breaks down a complex signal or image into a combination of simple
sinusoidal components.
• Statistical models: Statistical methods play a crucial role in fingerprint
analysis, especially in terms of pattern classification and matching.
Various mathematical models, such as probabilistic models and machine
learning algorithms, are employed to compare and match fingerprint
features. These models utilize mathematical techniques such as
probability theory, statistical inference, and pattern recognition to assess
the similarity or dissimilarity between fingerprints.
• Error rates and probability: Fingerprint analysis involves assessing the
probability of two fingerprints matching or belonging to the same
individual. This assessment is often based on statistical models and
considers error rates, false positives, false negatives.
