We report on experiments for the fingerprint modality conducted during the
First BioSecure Residential Workshop. Two reference systems for fingerprint
verification have been tested together with two additional non-reference
systems. These systems follow different approaches of fingerprint processing
and are discussed in detail. Fusion experiments I volving different
combinations of the available systems are presented. The experimental results
show that the best recognition strategy involves both minutiae-based and
correlation-based measurements. Regarding the fusion experiments, the best
relative improvement is obtained when fusing systems that are based on
heterogeneous strategies for feature extraction and/or matching. The best
combinations of two/three/four systems always include the best individual
systems whereas the best verification performance is obtained when combining
all the available systems.
