Python Fingerprint Recognition

Fingerprint recognition with SKimage and OpenCV

Requirements:

• NumPy
• SKimage
• OpenCV2

Works by extracting minutiae points using harris corner detection.

Uses SIFT (ORB) go get formal descriptors around the keypoints with brute-force hamming distance and then analyzes the returned matches using thresholds.

Usage:

1. Place 2 fingerprint images that you want to compare inside the database folder
2. Pass the names of the images as arguments in the console
