Query: End-to-End Pore Extraction and Matching in Latent Fingerprints: Going
  Beyond Minutiae   Latent fingerprint recognition is not a new topic but it has attracted a lot
of attention from researchers in both academia and industry over the past 50
years. With the rapid development of pattern recognition techniques, automated
fingerprint identification systems (AFIS) have become more and more ubiquitous.
However, most AFIS are utilized for live-scan or rolled/slap prints while only
a few systems can work on latent fingerprints with reasonable accuracy. The
question of whether taking higher resolution scans of latent fingerprints and
their rolled/slap mate prints could help improve the identification accuracy
still remains an open question in the forensic community. Because pores are one
of the most reliable features besides minutiae to identify latent fingerprints,
we propose an end-to-end automatic pore extraction and matching system to
analyze the utility of pores in latent fingerprint identification. Hence, this
paper answers two questions in the latent fingerprint domain: (i) does the
incorporation of pores as level-3 features improve the system performance
significantly? and (ii) does the 1,000 ppi image resolution improve the
recognition results? We believe that our proposed end-to-end pore extraction
and matching system will be a concrete baseline for future latent AFIS
development.
