Typical fingerprint verification systemA typical fingerprint verification system involves two stages: a) Enrollment. During enrollment, the users fingerprint is acquired and its distinctive features are extracted and stored as a template.b) Verification. During verification, a new fingerprint is acquired and compared to the stored template to verify the users claimed identity. Minutiae templatesThe distinctive features used by most fingerprint-based systems are the so-called minutiae, which are local characteristics of the pattern that are stable and robust to fingerprint impression conditions. With the aim of achieving interoperability among different fingerprint-based recognition systems, an international standard for minutiae template representation has been recently defined as ISO/IEC 19794-2, which is a minor modification of the earlier ANSI-INCITS 378-2004. A template based on minutiae is a very compact representation of the fingerprint. Many researchers and practitioners in the biometric field postulated that a template does not include enough information to reconstruct the original fingerprint image (that is, the template extraction procedure has been traditionally considered a one-way function).

SmallDatabase.bakThe file contains EY database schema. There is some a) The fingerprint table has 6 records. 1. The following template fields have data:a. InnoTemplateb. ISO Template2. The following template fields have no data:a. ANSITemplate3. The ISO and ANSI templates are standard whereas the InnoTemplate may be proprietary.b) The signature table has a signature binary field. This is probably image data.

What we can do with the EY data assuming it conforms to the schema of SmallDatabase.bak:a) Enrollment. During enrollment, the users fingerprint is acquired and its distinctive features are extracted and stored as a template.b) Verification. During verification, a new fingerprint is acquired and compared to the stored template to verify the users claimed identity. c) Large-scale AFISd) Suitable web-based user interfaceWhat we need:a) A good well-documented fingerprint SDK, e.g., Griaule, Neurotechnologyb) Credentials to open EY datac) Details of requirements
