Abstract

Fingerprint recognition is one of the most reliable and widely used biometric techniques for personal identification. The uniqueness and persistence of friction ridge patterns make fingerprints an ideal choice for forensic investigation and identification. In recent years, the advent of data analytics and machine learning algorithms has revolutionized the field of fingerprint recognition. In this paper, we propose a fingerprint digital classification system based on friction ridge characteristics and data analytics algorithms. We have used an open-source dataset of fingerprint images to test the proposed system. The results demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed approach.
